Killorn left a couple of shifts into the third period of Saturday’s preseason finale. His injury is not believed to be serious, but his day-to-day tag puts his status for the season opener in question.

Killorn (undisclosed) will play in game 1.
Killorn missed the final three games of the regular season, but will play in Game 1 vs. Detroit. Killorn will skate on the top line with Steven Stamkos and Ryan Callahan as well as play on the second power-play unit. He had 15 goals and 23 assists (38 points) in 71 games this season.

Goalie Start
Brossoit will start his first NHL game on Thursday.
Brossoit, 22, had a tough time in a brief AHL stint last season, but came into 2014-15 much stronger. He went 22-21-4 with a 2.65 GAA and .916 SV% in 49 games with Oklahoma City, which prompted the Oilers to recall him and let him make his NHL debut in a meaningless game against the Sharks.
