91-86-77-88 showed up to pull us out of this rut. Gonna need them to do the same for the rest of the series.

I'm pretty new here but I have noticed that, after Sustr, Killorn takes more heat than any other player mentioned on this board. I admit, I was surprised when SY gave him a 7 yr deal at a number that was also surprising, but he was the same player then that he is now so I guess he saw/sees something in him that is not readily visible to many of us. And, as you all know, he's been a strong playoff performer for us through the years. He's just the kind of player that you can't quite figure out so you hate him when he screws up and love him when he comes through. In stock market terms, he's a high beta play(er).He still looks faster than Concrete Skates Killorn.
Callahan up there in terms of heat as wellI'm pretty new here but I have noticed that, after Sustr, Killorn takes more heat than any other player mentioned on this board.

I like Killorn but man is he a disappearing act waiting to happen. At least he has been pretty clutch in the playoffs. If he wasnt, doubt he would be here.
Killorn had 5 points in the first 3 games against NJ, he's had 1 point in 10 games since while missing some golden chances. He's done nothing this series or last and actually got demoted, average guys don't live off playoff mantra for very long. Both Johnson and Killorn's PPG this playoffs have now dipped below their regular season production, for those 2 who disappear frequently in the regular season to not perform in the playoffs makes them that much more expendable.
Johnson's a fan favorite but he's been nothing but average for over 150 games now, Yzerman could use that $15m between them and Callahan much more effectively.
Yeah, he gets it too, but not like Killorn, at least to this newbie's eye. But Sustr, man that guy just gets murdered.Callahan up there in terms of heat as well
Conacher's average TOI in the playoffs is 5:05. Killorn is at 16:16 (behind TJ and ahead of Palat for comparison). As much as I like Conacher I don't want to see him having to ice 15+ minutes after he's not had a true game in terms of TOI in months arguably.Wouldn’t mind seeing Killorn benched for Conacher.
