Lightning head coach Jon Cooper says Killorn is considered day-to-day for the series and his replacement in the lineup will be revealed at game time.

Killorn blocked a Jeff Petry shot mid-way through the second period of Game 1 on Monday and played just four shifts the rest of the game, including one in the third period.

The 31-year-old has eight goals and 17 points in 19 post-season games for the Lightning.

The Lightning host the Canadiens for Game 2 Wednesday night at 8 p.m. ET/5 p.m. PT on Sportsnet looking to take a 2-0 series lead.

I grew up playing Ball and Roller Hockey day and night somewhat religiously throughout elementary and middle school. The two don't compare though when I lace up the skates and hit the ice. I live and breathe hockey beyond the perspective of "it's just a game" and I will gladly talk hockey for hours with anyone. Hockey is more than just a lifestyle, it's a culture of passionate people who make memories every time the puck is dropped. Hockey has not only helped me get through some of the hardest times in life but has created some of the best memories to date. Want to talk hockey with me? Shoot me an email: iburdetskiy@hookedonhockey.com and let's talk some hockey!
