Drafted:

1. Andersson: 2015, 53rd overall
2. Kylington: 2015, 60th overall
3. Mangiapane: 2015, 166th overall

First NHL Game:

1. Kylington: April 2016
2. Andersson: April 2017
3. Mangiapane: December 2017

Last Recall from AHL:

1. Andersson: October 2018
2. Mangiapane: January 2019
3. Kylington: April 2021

There are only 4 players left on the team who played the full 2018-19 season in Calgary: Backlund, Andersson, Lindholm, and Hanifin. Plus, another 4 who split the season between Stockton and Calgary: Mangiapane, Kylington, Dube, and Valimaki.

Yeah, bigrangy pointed that out. I didn't realize that Kylington was gone for 2 full seasons in between the debut game and the rest of his career.
