Checking the news Thursday morning, I saw that the Carolina Hurricanes signed defenceman Oliver Kylington to a professional tryout (as well as forward Givani Smith). Kylington played just 19 games between Colorado and Anaheim last season, totaling five points. He sustained an upper-body injury at the end of November and did not return until early [...]
