Forward Alex Killorn has signed a four-year contract with the Anaheim Ducks. The financial terms of the deal were not disclosed. Killorn, a two-time Stanley Cup champion with the Tampa Bay Lightning, had a career-high 64 points last season. He ranks among the top players in Lightning history in games played, goals, assists, and points.
The Anaheim Ducks have signed Alex Killorn to a four-year, $6.25 million AAV contract, which is seen as a significant overpayment. While Killorn brings a championship pedigree and offensive skills, his age and the talent gap between his former team, the Tampa Bay Lightning, and the Ducks raise concerns about his long-term performance. The Ducks, who are not competitive and have ample cap space, could afford the contract but it is still a questionable decision. Killorn likely couldn't have secured a similar payday elsewhere, but the contract is expected to age poorly. The fit grade for the contract is low, as other teams were able to add veteran players at a discount, while the Ducks paid a premium.
The Anaheim Ducks have signed forward Alex Killorn to a four-year deal worth about $25 million, adding a dependable left wing with goal-scoring ability and grit. Killorn, who had a successful 27-goal campaign last season with the Tampa Bay Lightning, will bring his experience and production to the Ducks. Additionally, the Ducks agreed on a three-year deal with defenseman Radko Gudas, who will provide physicality and a booming shot to the team's back end. Gudas, known for his punishing play, will also act as a mentor to the young players on the team.
The Tampa Bay Lightning were unable to retain their top unrestricted free agent, Alex Killorn, due to salary cap constraints. Killorn signed a four-year, $25 million deal with the Anaheim Ducks. However, the Lightning made moves to retool their forward lines by signing Conor Sheary, Luke Glendening, and Josh Archibald to value deals. They also signed goaltender Jonas Johansson and forward Logan Brown. Sheary signed a three-year deal, Glendening signed a two-year deal, and Archibald signed a two-year deal. Killorn had spent 11 seasons with the Lightning and was coming off a career-high 27-goal season.
