    Default Ultimate Karlsson Rant

    I'd just like to get this out of my system.
    Everyone raves over this dude...I understand the points are nice. Everytime I watch a sens game and see him on the ice...he just looks sloppy, out of place and you got it, trailing in behind on a goal against.
    MINUS 4 TONIGHT! Minus every game it seems. I'm not even that upset of what he's doing to my squad as I am for the "he's the best dman in the league" comments. Pretty little boy needs to learn how to play DEFENCE.

    Coincidentally, P.J. Stock said the same thing earlier on Hockey Night in Canada. Had video evidence from the game the other night vs. Chicago. There are definitely better defenders, but his ability to generate offence makes a difference

    I hear ya...but Mike Green was very similar and he gets ripped to shreds!

    I can only keep 1 of Malkin and Karlsson at end of year and I was really considering it at the start of the year to keep goldie locks... tonight the nail is in the coffin!

    yes but the main reason mike green gets ripped to shreds is that he is injury prone and gets injured alot, karllson has had one injury which was a skate to the achilles, other then that he has been healthy and putting up almost PPG numbers

    Nah, I think the main reason mike gets ripped is his shit defence...Team Canada thought so too when he was leading all D in scoring.

    yes exactly like karllson, but karllson has been more consistent offensively ( less injuries) which shadows his defense to average hockey fans, im not saying hes amazing at defense, hes not even good at defense hes brutal in his own zone, he shows flashes but only for a few shifts, but his play in the offensive zone is in a tier of its own when it comes to d-men

    Youre wrong. And anyone who suggests it is always laughed at for good reason.

    One bad night.

    Forget about it people.

    before his injury he was great in his own zone. Still getting his pivoting back which is the only area he isn't good in.
