Erik Karlsson, come on down!
He’s one of the more deceptively washed guys in the league right now.

Don’t get me wrong, he’s not completely awful. He might even be a pretty useful player on a good team where he’s the oldest player; and not a slow, bad team where he’s the fourth oldest player. He would be useful on a cheaper deal, but he’s one player that I call bullshit on the analytics.

Especially his skating speed that I saw was supposedly still very quick. He looks old, slow and I keep forgetting that the Sharks don’t have him on perma-LTIR until I see him on the Pens games.

I don’t think the Rangers would go there. Even they know better than to touch him I think. Unless Pittsburgh retains I don’t know how much. And I don’t even know the rules on how much you’re allowed to retain on a contract that someone else is already retaining on.

I don't think they will either but it's such a Ranger-y move

It's Matt Cooke that really f***ed his career if I'm remembering correctly? Probably a few 100 point seasons by a d-man stolen from us because of him. Karlsson had the talent to do it.

Well that was way early on in his career. He was still pretty good into his 30s, but now he’s close to 35 and has been dropping off a bit.

He had that I don’t wanna say career year a couple of years ago, but it seemed to be a one year return to his prime. If not for that year he might still be rotting on the Sharks, but now he gets to rot with a bunch of guys even older than he is over on the Pens instead.
