Kylington is not a long shot as a career NHLer. Look at Shea Theodore.. a guy two years older than Kylington who (at 21) still has the same flaws as Kylington (at 19). He was playing regular NHL minutes in the playoffs at age 21 and still had considerable value to Vegas even with those flaws on full display in the biggest stage.

Foo can put up points and his upside is top line. Hell, we might see him there before this season is over.

I don't see Foo's upside as top line. Maybe a third wheel grinder to Gaudreau and co but not a true top liner. He produced at 22/23 in NCAA but he was one of the older players, and doesn't seem to have any game breaking attributes needed to be top line IMO.
Dube was offensively productive at 17 and 18, he is on a more stellar path. If he is a middle sixer that'll be a solid outcome but I am not sure that's his ceiling...
