Alex Killorn News

Killorn has missed the last seven games with a knee injury and is progressing toward returning to the Ducks' lineup. In his first season with the Ducks, Killorn has 19 points (6G / 13A) in 34 games, his lowest point-per-game pace in six seasons.

Killorn has missed the last six games with a knee injury and is progressing toward returning to the Ducks' lineup over the next couple of weeks. In his first season with the Ducks, Killorn has 19 points (6G / 13A) in 34 games, his lowest point-per-game pace in six seasons.

Killorn will have to wait a little longer to make his Anaheim Ducks debut as he is expected to miss at least a month on the injured reserve with a fractured finger. The 11-year veteran is coming off a career-best 64-point campaign (27G / 37A) with the Tampa Bay Lightning and was signed by the Ducks to add some much-needed goal-scoring to the league's 31st-ranked offence (2.51 GPG). Until he makes his full recovery, expect Frank Vatrano to have an elevated role to start the season.

Killorn signed a four-year, $25 million contract with the Ducks in the offseason and was expected to be a pivotal part of their top six this season but will now miss the next 4-6 weeks as he deals with a fractured finger from Wednesday's preseason bout. The 34-year-old left-winger is coming off a career season with 27 goals, 37 assists, 45 PIMs, and 143 SOG in an 82-game campaign with Tampa Bay in 2022-23.

Killorn played the first 11 years of his career with the Lightning, winning two Stanley Cups and tallying 466 points (198G / 268A) across 805 regular season games. He's coming off of a career-year in 2023, scoring 27 goals with 37 assists (64 points), all career-bests for the 33-year-old. In Anaheim he'll factor into their middle-6 and should skate on a line with either Trevor Zegras or Mason McTavish, while also seeing some power-play deployment.

Killorn was assessed a five-minute major and was ejected from Game 2 and will miss Game 3 as well. With Killorn suspended and Brayden Point likely out, the Lighting lineup will look a lot different in Game 3. Look for two of Carter Verhaeghe, Mathieu Joseph or Mitchell Stephens to draw into the lineup if Point joins Killorn in the stands.

Killorn was a game-time decision on Tuesday but didn't end up playing for the second straight game. This morning he was on the ice for the morning skate and was on a line with Carter Verhaeghe and Mathieu Joseph, so expect him to fill a fourth-line role if he plays.

Killorn missed Saturday's game with a lower-body injury but will be a game-time decision on Tuesday. Killorn was on the ice for Monday's practice and Tuesday's optional morning skate but his status remains uncertain. Cory Conacher was called-up from Syracuse (AHL) in case Killorn can't play.

Killorn was forced to leave Game 3 with an undisclosed injury but was on the ice for the morning skate and is officially listed as a game-time decision for Game 4. Killorn has one goal on six shots while averaging 12:13 TOI/gm through the first three games of the series.

Killorn missed Tuesday’s game with an undisclosed injury, but will return to the lineup tonight in Minnesota. Killorn will play with Brayden Point and Jonathan Drouin and has 16 goals and 12 assists (28 points) in 53 games this season.
