Oliver Kylington - Page 3 - NHL News & Rumors

Game-time call Kylington will be a game-time decision heading into Thursday's clash with St. Louis, Pat Steinberg of Sportsnet 960 The Fan reports.

Impact Kylington has been limited offensively since returning to the team in late January, registering just five points in 24 contests while averaging 16:44 of ice time. As such, most fantasy players won't be impacted by his potential absence. If Kylington does miss out against the Blues, Joel Hanley or Dennis Gilbert figures to step into the lineup.

Earns assist Thursday Kylington notched an assist, five blocked shots, two PIM and a plus-2 rating in Thursday's 4-1 win over the Golden Knights.

Impact Kylington has earned two helpers over the last three games. He's seeing a larger role after the Flames heavily remodeled their defense around the trade deadline. The 26-year-old is in a top-four role now and should be there for the remainder of the campaign. He's up to five points, 25 shots on net, 33 blocked shots, 12 hits, six PIM and a plus-2 rating through 19 outings overall.

Sends helper Sunday Kylington notched an assist, two shots on goal and a minus-2 rating in Sunday's 7-2 loss to the Hurricanes.

Impact Kylington ended a five-game slump with the helper on Dryden Hunt's second-period tally. Following the trades of Chris Tanev to Dallas and Noah Hanifin to Vegas, Kylington is set for an increased role on the second pairing, though it hasn't come with more power-play time. Kylington has four points, 22 shots on net, 27 blocked shots and a plus-3 rating through 17 appearances this season.

Grabs helper Saturday Kylington posted an assist, two shots on goal and three blocked shots in Saturday's 6-3 win over the Oilers.

Impact Kylington has two goals and an assist over the last three games after beginning his season with eight scoreless outings. The defenseman has added 16 shots on net, 18 blocked shots and a plus-3 rating through 11 appearances. He's on the third pairing for now, but Kylington could be moved up to a top-four role if one or both of Chris Tanev and Noah Hanifin are traded.

Goals in consecutive games Kylington scored a goal on three shots and blocked three shots in Thursday's 3-2 overtime win over the Bruins.

Impact Kylington's first two points of the campaign have been his goals in each of the last two games. The 26-year-old has added 14 shots on net, 15 blocked shots and a plus-2 rating over 10 appearances in his first action since the 2021-22 campaign. Kylington's offense in a third-pairing role probably won't get him much fantasy attention, but his comeback after such a long personal absence could see him nominated for the Masterton Trophy at the end of the season.
