A common refrain from fans on Twitter is frustration with Alex Killorn. He’s become one of the favorite punching bags of the Tampa Bay Lightning fan base over the years, especially since their former punching bag, Matt Carle and Andrej Sustr, are gone. He’s a streaky scorer, so there is often a refrain of “He disappears!” Or “He’s so overpaid!” Or “He falls down out of nowhere!” and “He can’t skate!” Ok, I have to admit, I do laugh when he falls down without any help.
Big picture, Killorn has been one of the most consistent scorers for the Lightning in his NHL career.
