Just terrible news. so sorry.

 

[mysens]

Just read about this, it's absolutely terrible. Any chance the game can be postponed? I can't imagine anyone in the organization wants to play a game tonight.

What?? Extremely sad news, but unfortunately this happens every single day to normal people and guess what...the sport of business and any business must go on.

 

[Senator Blutarsky]

What absolutely devastating news. My heart goes out to them both.

 

[albator71]

this is the worst thing that can happened to parents losing a child. my thoughts and prayers goes to them and their families.

 

[Beville]

Anyone know what happened?

 

[Langdon Alger]

Yep, call it a season and go be with your wife.

Unless he "needs" to play, there's nothing to be gained by having him play.

That’s up to him. If he wants to come back, we’ll support him. If he needs time off, we’ll support him there too.

I had to bury one of my daughters from what they call a “abruptio placentae” at 8 months pregnancy
It is an hematoma that forms near the placentae and stops the feeding to the fetus

Happens in the late stage so maybe that what happened

As a parent I cannot begin to understand what you, your wife, and the Karlsson's have gone/are going through.

 

[slamigo]

So horrible. What a real shame. I feel just awful hearing about that. Wouldn’t wish that on anyone.

 

[Zguy370]

Sad news for sure, was wondering what had happened to Erik when I saw he was on IR this morning. Thoughts are with him his wife and family

 

[L'Aveuglette]

Incredibly sad and shocking news. My condolences to the Karlsson family. Please take all the time you need Erik.

 

[AchtzehnBaby]

Oh so terrible. EK65 and wife have lost their baby.

Very sad.

Thoughts and prayers to the family.

 

[BLONG7]

Sad news...sorry to hear this..........alot of people are thinking of them.

 

[Ray Kinsella]

Extremely sad.... I have no words...

 

[Karl Prime]

This is just heartbreaking. I was two months premature at birth but I know that I could have been one of the unfortunate ones. Can't imagine what Erik and Melinda are going through right now.

 

[Samboni]

My sincere condolences to the Karlsson family. May God grant them strength and peace in this difficult time.

 

[Sun God Nika]

Give him all the time he needs even if it means he played his last game for Ottawa.

Such an amazing human being it truly does suck. Where ever Karlsson goes i'll root for him before anyone else, he is the greatest thing that happened to the Ottawa Senators.

 

[Ray Kinsella]

Will always wonder if he was going to be the next Erik....

 

[DJB]

Man sucks for the Karlsson's.

I won't be surprised if he simply doesn't play another game this year.

 

[Sensung]

No words to adequately express my sympathy for the Karlsson's at this time. Such a devastating loss.

 

[tony d]

Absolutely terrible. An event that puts everything, including hockey, into perspective. My thoughts are with Karlsson and his family at this time.

 

[topshelf15]

I am sorry for your loss, no parent should ever have to bury their child. As a father of two I cannot imagine the pain.

 

[Kaapodonna]

Terrible. Thoughts to his family.... =(
