Not Too Soft
Yikes.Karlsson gained a nice -11 from playing on the power play this year a new career high.
I'm not gonna say Boivin's a great HoF induction... but I DO have to point out that the first eight years of Boivin's career are outside of the +/- measuring stick. So- does that mean that if they were available, then Boivin's total would be even worse? Not so fast- the teams on which Boivin played were (ever-so-slightly) over .500 during those first 400+ games of Boivin's career.Well, I had to look up and find Leo Boivin and his -212. Karlsson at -103.
It'd be more germane to find the HoF "minus" leader among players for whom the measurement was available for the player's entire career. That would be Bernie Federko, at -131. Very well within reach for Karlsson. He bids fair to get there as soon as next season.
