This is supposed to be a list of 10 teams on his no trade clause (aka 10 teams he cant be traded to)
Proposal: Guess Karlsson's 10 team no trade list

I don’t think any of the New York Metro teams would be on his no trade list. Big market but not as hyper crazy as Canada, Devils and Isles are trending up, Rangers always competing.
Maybe the Isles on the list because of arena uncertainty, but I think that is nearly cleared up as well.

chicago has a ridiculously high crime rate so I can understand why an NHL player would want to avoid that "world class" city. When it comes to LA and NY it's been previously stated that Karlsson doesn't want to play in a large market. Therefore, Pittsburgh sounds like a perfect destination for him. Much cleaner than the other cities you mentioned.

Chicago's crime rate is lower than a lot of cities, its just because they have 3 million living in the imediate city its base numbers while per capita its lower than many cities, notably St.Louis. Theres a reason why the Hawks were able to attract free agents even when they were bad while teams like Pit and Edmonton had to get good first, theyre basically as exciting of a place to live in as Cleveland.

Just throwing this out there, I prefer Winnipeg to Ottawa. I'm sure that people would be too afraid to get to know it, but Winnipeg has a LOT to offer.

I'm confused.. is this supposed to be Edmonton or Winnipeg??
Of course EK wants to stay in Ottawa. He loves the city. His wife who's expecting their first child is from there and her family lives there. He obviously loves the Sens and is very proud of being the captain.
What he definitely does not love is ownership. I'd actually think that EK more than most players would take a hard look at ownership before making his list. Players come and go, management/coach are fired but ownership doesn't change easily.
One has to remember that this isn't the first time EK is up close and personal to Melnyk's antics. Alfie deferred salary to keep the Sens competitive with the 'gentleman's agreement' that he'd get paid fairly later on. And he was still a damned good player when his new contract was up and Melnyk reneged on the deal. Presumably then EK won't give Melnyk the benefit of the doubt, considering his recent comments, not to mention the earlier olympic ones. As for the list, he wouldn't put any of the division teams on it, since the chances that he'd be traded there are minor. Presumably he'd also put teams he's too obviously a rental for and that wouldn't have the cap space after next year to re-sign him. He'd want a team where he could stay long term.
I feel rather sorry for Dorion, who seems to be a decent GM, having to deal with Melnyk undermining him.

Arizona, Buffalo, Detroit, Florida, Carolina, Montreal, Edmonton, Vancouver, New York Islanders and Calgary.
Zach Parise literally told NJD fans to their faces and the media that he wasn't going anywhere a week before he signed with Minnestoa. Then we found out he was texting Suter all season planning on where they were going to sign and play together.

Carolina is definitely on his no trade list. He wouldn’t want to be on a 3rd pairing at this point in his career.

Does she want him to be in a big city or no? Can't tell if your post was sarcastic or not.
He said no such thing. The only definite thing he said was that he wasn't going to sign with the Rangers.
Uhhh okay.
Zach Parise on saying he wanted to stay with Devils before leaving: 'I wasn’t lying'
"When Zach Parise was the Devilscaptain and in the final year of his contract, he kept saying he wanted to stay in New Jersey.
Then four days after becoming an unrestricted free agent, the star left winger divorced his first NHL team on July 4, 2012 by signing a 13-year, $98 million contract with his hometown team, the Minnesota Wild.
The split angered a lot of Devils fans, some of whom casted Parise a liar.
Before his first game back in New Jersey, Parise was reminded what he had said after Thursday's morning skate and then was asked by NJ.com if he meant it at the time.
“Yeah, I wasn't lying,” Parise responded during a five-minute group interview outside the Wild dressing room. “I have no reason to lie about that stuff. I was being completely honest. As I've said before, it basically came down to Minnesota or here (in New Jersey). I have no reason to lie. I wasn't trying to sugarcoat anything.”
Zach Parise again says he wants to stay with the Devils
Free agent Zach Parise wants to stay with Devils, has no desire to play for rival Rangers
No player will every say they are "definitely staying" or "definitely leaving" but my point is Karlsson is doing what Parise did by saying all the right things.
