1st line or not, RFA or UFA, for 6 million, you should be... better.

More than 22M tied up in Killorn, Henrique, Silfverberg and Strome.
What does it matter? If they didn’t have those contracts they would have to overpay someone else in UFA to hit the floor. It isn’t like those contracts are stopping them from getting someone else.

Killorn has really been showing why we signed him lately. Nice to see him getting comfortable and showing up.

Will be interesting to see what happens when Henrique is traded, they have seemed to have some good chemistry

He has definitely improved and I’m kind of excited to see him compliment a hopefully healthy roster next season. Hopefully he doesn’t decline too much by then

I’m kinda liking the idea of a

Killorn-Zegras-X

3rd line feasting on easy matchups

The ducks desperately need a right shooting goal scoring forward that isn’t Terry. A big gaping hole on this roster

I'll admit, he is playing better... still slow as molasses out there, but he is rather handsy at times. He and Jones have actually looked to have a little chemistry building the last couple games.

Guys going to be a 20g/35a guy next season and the following 2. That will be solid production on top of his vet presence. Another GM Pat Verbeek winning signing.

He's def. looked much better in the second half of the season.

The contract will never look like a win value-wise, but if he plays like he is now, we can certainly live with it.

I'm happier with his contract, than the $5,000,000 for Ryan Strome for three more years.

I still think he looks bad / not 100%, but he somehow manages to produce like he's done in Tampa or at least not far off, and it's throwing me for a loop.

Any TBL lurkers in this thread, feel free to chime in.

He’s rebounded pretty nicely.

The big thing that concerns me is the age and the last year of his contract

But I like having him here the next year or two

I agree. I think now that he'll have a full summer to heal as well should only help things. It seems like some players take awhile to find their rhythm again in new places. I think Killorn will have a strong season next year as long as he stay healthy.
