Thing about a sample size?
Small or not if it's bad a player doesn't get to play. I mentioned they haven't given him the rope that Nesterov has had, but that doesn't mean he hasn't had the bad numbers he's had.
When Kylington plays they don't trust him on a third pairing and tend to spot him with more veteran guys.
And yeah as Text said he and Michael Stone are the only sub 50% defenders on the team over the last two years (500 minutes or more total)
16 players have been on the ice with Kylington for 100 or more minutes in the last two plus years, and only four of them are better with him than away from him in shot attempts or expected goals.
I want the kid to turn the corner, but a certain percentage of this is on him.
