I look at it this way: Kylington had an injury that limited him to 33 games and 8 points over the last 2 seasons. Thats risky and not grounds for a pay increase or much term. If I’m the Flames I’m wondering why not spend that money on more proven/dependable commodity if it has become contentious?
The whole situation is just odd as by all accounts the Flames have been extremely supportive and it’s hard to imagine a better support situation for him. I would expect that would have value to him.
Having said that, I won’t be losing any sleep if he signs elsewhere. I doubt his leaving will be much of a source of regret if he does move on from the Flames.
