I really don't understand this comparison.
Bennett was highly ranked, power forward who was the highest pick in franchise history.
Kyllington was a project player who fell far down the draft because it was understood he would need a lot of time and work to become a full time NHler. Kylington has been treated nothing like Bennett.
Bennett was thrown onto the team before he was ready, never played in the AHL and was played night in night out with garbage light mates until he asked for a trade.
Kyllington played tons in the AHL, got sheltered minutes and has experienced patient development. When he plays now he is playing with one of the Flames best D men with a reputation of helping young players play their best.
The only similarity is that both players are Legends. and the Legend of Kylington grows ever day.
