Avalanche's Oliver Kylington: Shows up on scoresheet
Oliver Kylington scored a goal on two shots, added an assist and went plus-2 in Saturday's 7-4 win over the Panthers.Kylington missed time earlier in the season due to an illness, but he's also struggled to get in the lineup when healthy. He's primarily competed for a third-pairing spot that is usually filled by Calvin de Haan, though Kylington has now played in three straight games. Kylington's two points Saturday were his first scoring contributions of the season, and he's added two shots on net, two hits, six blocked shots and a minus-2 rating over seven outings. Without more offense, the 27-year-old won't be an option in most fantasy formats.

Flames' Oliver Kylington: Tallies in win
Oliver Kylington scored a goal and went plus-2 in Thursday's 5-1 win over the Sharks.After missing all of 2022-23 and a good portion of this season, Kylington's return was a positive story for a Calgary Flames team that remains stuck in mediocrity. The defenseman earned eight points and added 42 shots on net, 51 blocked shots and a minus-6 rating. Kylington, a pending unrestricted free agent, expressed his desire to sign with Calgary again, Wes Gilbertson of the Calgary Sun reported Friday.
