Smith is an AHL player all the way. And Kylington is cooked as an NHL regular.

The guy is still hanging around & getting opportunities based off one good year playing alongside Chris Tanev. Other than that when he hasn’t been hurt or in player assistance he’s been awful. Last year in the games he did play for the Avs. He looked like a guy who legitimately didn’t know how to play his position. Some of the worst positional defensive play I’d seen this side of Kurtis Macdermid lol.
