| Oliver Kylington | Summary | First time I have seen Kylington since his should injury and was skating very well.

His skating covers a lot of mistakes, but the offensive skill is excellent. | Zachary DeVine | Ontario vs Stockton (AHL) | Live | 4/1/2016 |

| Oliver Kylington | Note | Kylington gets his pocket picked and Langolis gets a shot on goal. A rare mishandle by the young Swede. | Zachary DeVine | Stockton vs San Jose (AHL) | Live | 12/27/2015 |
| Oliver Kylington | Summary | Oliver Kylington might not have had a offensively powerful game, but his defensive play has been positionally correct and responsible.

| Oliver Kylington | Summary | Continue to be impressed with Oliver Kylington’s game. Consistency will be the issue for him, as he has a high level of skill but not much of a physical presence. He will need to develop physically to survive. | Zachary DeVine | Stockton vs San Jose (AHL) | Live | 12/20/2015 |
| Oliver Kylington | Note | Kylington paired with Wotherspoon early. I think it is a smart, complimentary pairing. | Zachary DeVine | San Jose vs Stockton (AHL) | Live | 11/21/2015 |
| Oliver Kylington | Summary | Smallish, and looks like he needs some more time to learn the finer aspects of zone play, but he is a shining example of an offensive defenseman. Excellent skating, agility and hands. | Brian Fogarty | San Jose vs Stockton (AHL) | Video (With Replay) | 11/21/2015 |
| Oliver Kylington | Note | PP time to end the 2nd was a tour de force even through he let the puck out of the zone after the face off. Usually floated back, held the puck, kicked up the speed and lead the breakout back into the offensive zone. Good low, hard shot and again quick and active. | Zachary DeVine | San Jose vs Stockton (AHL) | Live | 11/21/2015 |
| Oliver Kylington | Note | Shift after Timmins' goal, Kylington walks in and nearly ties it. Every shift seems more confident. Deployed more often in the 3rd. | Zachary DeVine | San Jose vs Stockton (AHL) | Live | 11/21/2015 |
| Oliver Kylington | Note | Caught cheating at 5:25 of 3rd and used superior skating to recover completely. Impressive viewing, a player to watch. | Zachary DeVine | San Jose vs Stockton (AHL) | Live | 11/21/2015 |
| Oliver Kylington | Summary | Kylington is small, but demonstrated good body positioning and stick work. Out-developed at the moment by AHL men. Skating is very impressive. Smart angles, quick stick and sharp, hard passes. His quick transitions and overall impressive skating allows gambling and the skill to recover. I am seeing some of the risky items in his game that were all over his player notes before the draft, but nothing alarming or frankly unwelcome in an offensive defenseman. | Zachary DeVine | San Jose vs Stockton (AHL) | Live | 11/21/2015 |
| Oliver Kylington | Note | Really, really fast. Blowing past people on the back check | Brian Fogarty | San Jose vs Stockton (AHL) | Video (With Replay) | 11/21/2015 |
| Oliver Kylington | Note | Beautiful little play where he just simply reached out and took the puck from a San Jose forward. Very poised. | Brian Fogarty | San Jose vs Stockton (AHL) | Video (With Replay) | 11/21/2015 |
| Oliver Kylington | Note | Should have had a goal after sweet moves through the top of the offensive zone, but the puck trickled just wide of the post | Brian Fogarty | San Jose vs Stockton (AHL) | Video (With Replay) | 11/21/2015 |
| Oliver Kylington | Note | Again skating hard on the back check. Gets so low when skating hard. Excellent stride. | Brian Fogarty | San Jose vs Stockton (AHL) | Video (With Replay) | 11/21/2015 |
