I assume Nesterov plays in Stockton (or wherever the Heat will be) alongside Yelesin?

I agree. I think Kylington should be given a opportunity to play regularly on the third pairing and get experience to build the defensive side of this game.
From what I've seen of him in NHL action, he's made the occaisional gaffe every so often, but viewed on their own in isolation, each individual incident isn't that bad; they just appear more frequently than the gaffes we see from the top-4.
There is definitely potential for him to learn and grow. I am confident he can make his way up to 2nd pairing.
However, the longer he waits to sign a contract, as the Flames start filling out their roster less cap space/money is available for Kylington. Could be a pressure tactic by BT.
