Did Kylington always skate so bent over? Almost Mason Raymondesque. he has speed, though a few of those clips looked a little off balance (concerning given that spinorama injury he got).

Yeah he's always been a bit off balance.

He tends to fall when he cuts too tight ... think maybe the boot hits the ice because of the angle he gets when he turns.

I just like the fact he knows he's got wheels and to use them for the teams benefit when we have those nights where feet aren't moving and guys have shown up and suited up just to watch...lol...

Just hope his Inspiration gives us a boost the last 41 games. I still want this team to make an effort towards a winning instead of being happy with mediocrity, signing retirement contracts and country club atmospheres.

I think this team is way better than they realize and the parts that can be swapped in and out can compliment that.

Were getting younger , developed and the future looks brighter...I'm just impatient waiting for things to cook a little longer.

Kylington has always been a fast, but he has balance issues much like Mangiapane who seems to fall over all the time as well.

He might benefit from the skating coach. I think his speed is natural ability and his stability and power might improve with technique.

Pretty sure they have worked with her.

At this point it probably is what it is with them. Its weird seeing such a gifted skater fall over as much as he does.

Mang falls over due to the rotation of the earth. Cripes I have better balance on skates.

Either way, Kylington just ruined Ontario. Good for him! 'Tis a silly place.

It's only a model.

Yes.

At least he's listed as the player to watch in the game notes

Edit: As Scorp mentioned, he's now listed with a groin injury.

Makes sense. Pace things a bit so the body catches up. I'm sure everything's a bit tight after a full game at full chat.

You can blow on him and he falls over at times

I hope its really minor.

But yeah, I could see being off for that long and then getting into the pace of a game could be tough.

Its not like this guy needs more setbacks in his career but injuries happen.
