Friedman: Cody Glass was likely the hold up on Karlsson to vegas trade

[Panthaz89]

For all his offensive gifts, Karlsson still has a career GF% under 50 at 5v5, despite being deployed in the OZone at least 55% of the time. He generates shots up the wazoo but is mediocre in suppressing them. And he'll absolutely still take plays off in the defensive zone and blows his coverage.

he's an entirely different player in the playoffs(not that he's not great before that) where he actually plays great on both ends and we are talking about a playoff run.

Once again, Detroit greatly thanks Ottawa for getting cold feet.
