    considering there is 7 D per team
    definitely take a chance on him
    he could potentially push his way on to the first unit and play alongside Kuba

    I think it is 50/50 he starts the season.

    That said, snag him anyway in a keeper and be patient. He will soon pay nice dividends.

    By 2010-11, he will own the point on the Sens PP ... and will for a while.

    I'll say not ready now, but next year possibly. They don't wanna rush this guy, but it's not like they have too many options, so he'll get his chances. I don't think he makes the team this year.

    Pack him away for the future. In my mind there's no way a smallish, young, NHL-inexperienced D makes and impact in his first and probably 2nd year. The one I'm looking to pick up pts from the back end this year is Campoli.

    while i could see karlsson coming in and putting up an enstrom-like season, i think it'd be smarter for them to let him grow a little more. he's still only like 170 lbs, and not used to NHL ice.

    if i had to bet money, i'd say he won't make the team this year... although bryan murray may be in a desperate mood this fall.

    No, I'm pretty sure he's staying in Sweden for 1 more year.

    Source on that?

    Everything I've read suggests he's heading over to Ottawa. Over here in Sweden we're all expecting him to make the jump over the pond. He's not even listed on the Frölunda roster anymore in a lot of places.
    GO WINGS!
