This was my point earlier and you argued that you don't get it.
Kylington also hardly played anywhere in 20/21. Literally played 8 games.
Hanifin is the better player but Kylington has more room to grow and really how much more can Hanifin grow after 500+ games in the league already. Maybe more NHL playoff experience will help him but that probably doesn't make sense to you either.

There are late bloomers but in general, when two guys are the same age and one has a lot more NHL games and the other has way more minor league, it's not exactly a factor in favour of the second guy. Lack of NHL games doesn't equal "room to grow", or else Dennis Gilbert has a huge ceiling.
