Kylington, 28, missed the entire 2022-23 National Hockey League season due to his mental health, something the Calgary Flames have been very understanding about as they should be.
It's been a long road for Kylington who began a rehab stint with the Flames American Hockey League Affiliate in December, and I bet he's ecstatic to be able to resume his playing career after taking care of his mental health.
