Alex Killorn: our analysis
2025-26 season: 82 GP, 15 G, 18 A, 33 PTS, -2 +/-, 16:42 TOI. WAR 0.7 (210th of 615) · PAL 37, below average.
In 2025-26, Alex Killorn, 37, posts a PAL Rating of 37 out of 100 (below average), and his WAR of 0.7 ranks 210th among 615 regulars, in the top half.
His strengths: penalty kill (87, among the best in the league) and possession (72, above average). On the other hand, power play (0, among the weakest in the league) and offense (22, well below average) hold him back.
Breaking down his WAR (goals above average), his biggest contribution: EV offense (+2.1); his biggest cost: finishing (-1.4).
A clear step forward: his PAL went from 27 in 2024-25 to 37; his WAR, though, went from 1.1 to 0.7.
Contract-wise, his Value score of 19 (very poor return) weighs his output against what he costs: 50 is what that salary should buy.
Alex Killorn's story
Raised in Beaconsfield on Montreal Island, Killorn progressed through Lakeshore minor hockey, then played midget AAA for Lac St. Louis before spending two seasons at Deerfield Academy in Massachusetts. He combined academics and hockey at Harvard from 2008 to 2012, earning selection to the 2011–12 ECAC First Team in his senior year and completing a degree in political science.
Originally picked 77th overall by the Tampa Bay Lightning in the 2007 draft, Killorn turned pro at the end of the 2011–12 campaign with the AHL’s Norfolk Admirals and helped that club capture the Calder Cup. He signed a two-year entry-level contract with Tampa Bay on 19 May 2012 and made his NHL breakthrough during the lockout-shortened 2012–13 season: his first NHL point was an assist on 10 February 2013 at the New York Rangers and his first goal came six days later at the Florida Panthers.
Over eleven seasons with Tampa Bay Killorn developed into a steady top-six winger. After a full 82-game season in 2013–14 (17 goals, 24 assists), he became a regular playoff contributor, set single-postseason marks for Harvard alumni during the 2015 run to the Stanley Cup Final, and reached personal milestones such as his 100th assist (23 March 2017) and 100th goal (19 February 2019). He signed a seven-year extension on 17 July 2016 and was named an alternate captain prior to 2019–20. Killorn was part of Tampa Bay’s back-to-back Stanley Cup wins in 2020 and 2021.
Playoff hockey has repeatedly been central to his career: deep runs in 2015, 2016, 2018 and the two Cups in 2020–21 produced some of his most significant moments, although he suffered a broken fibula on 28 June 2021 in Game 1 of the Final. He continued to show durability in regular seasons, peaking statistically in 2022–23 with career highs of 27 goals, 37 assists and 64 points.
On 1 July 2023 Killorn signed a four-year contract with the Anaheim Ducks. A thumb fracture in preseason delayed his debut, but he returned in November 2023, scored his first Ducks goal on 24 November and recorded his 200th NHL goal on 2 December; he closed the 2023–24 campaign with 18 goals and 18 assists in 63 games. His game is defined by consistency, playoff experience and an ability to contribute both goals and secondary assists from the wing.
