Johnny Hoxville
The Return of a Legend
As an expert, I can say with confidence that if the Flames were put in a situation through injury where Kylington was the next man up this year, they probably would make a move for another team's #7 or #8.
You’re probably right. Maybe the Flames should target someone like Brett Kulak from the Habs, oh wait..
The Kylington haters can keep hating on him, it doesn’t change the fact that the game today is played where the best defence is done by playing a good offence. That means having 6 defenders that are all fast, can skate and pass well and constantly push the play in the opponents own zone. It’s literally what we’ve heard Peters preach since he’s got here and it’s 100% why Valimaki is on the team when the majority of posters on this board said he’s not ready. Valimaki has been more than okay, but I agree with the decision that he made the team over Kylington. But Oliver is not far off, once he simplifies his game he’ll be in the NHL despite his shortcomings because his strengths outweigh his flaws.
