For some reason the Karlsson worshiping threads have not been bumped by Sens fans tonight...
Erik Karlsson is a great defender, but honestly this year he is cheating a little too much to provide OTT offense.
It shows up in about every game.
Pretty crazy phantom goal in the Anaheim game... Video sure looks like puck went in, but pretty low quality. High quality shot afterwards of the net shows no hole that the puck could have gone through...

The net after:
Yeah, but the net after picture had to of been taken after an intermission, because the Detroit netminder is in that goal. Either that or they have a picture of the wrong net.
Clearly the puck went through the net.
Holy ****, I had no idea this game was in Detroit!

I agree he's cheating more than previous years but I think calling him great is too much. Down by a goal no other dman I would love to have, but tied or with a lead I would prefer almost any other top 4 dman....

He's terrible defensively. There's no other way to put it.

It's hard to fathom. If Ottawa was a top defensive team, I could see it because even one or two goals more than a teammate makes a big difference. He would easily get the benefit of the doubt. But they are one of the worst - after tonight's game NHL.com has them at 131 goals against.
On one of the worst defensive teams in the league at allowing goals, he's the worst defensman at allowing goals on his team by far. It's a new level of terrible.
Does his offense make up for it? Yes somewhat. He's the best defensman on his team at production. But as much as he scores, both Methot and Cowen have better GF percentages per 60.

Getzlaf has the ability to empty out that arena pretty quickly
I see there's a bunch of excuses in the Karlsson thread. Typical.
