Most dymanic Dman in the NHL. And he does it with a quarter of the support that a guy like Brent Burns enjoys.

[MOD]

 

[Vikke]

He doesn't kill penalties though.

 

[jbeck5]

Gased? He's playing what, 2 minutes less per game. If anything he'll have more energy than usual.

 

[Viletho]

GEEZ, not another thread stop it..

Karlsson is good, very good. But stop that. We don't need to talk about Karlsson again and again.

 

[seafoam]

It's very possible he'll get another Norris.

 

[YoSoyLalo]

Best player in the league until McDavid proved otherwise.

 

[Plural]

Possibly the best player in the world. Well, it's still probably Crosby. But Karlsson amazing.

 

[PattyLafontaine]

Why not just start the annual
Norris thread. Probably going to see the same three guys as last year barring injury.

Btw Burns has 8 pts.

 

[bobermay]

Good for him... Anyone know where you can find goals vs goals against when on the ice stats? (taking into account special teams)

In all honesty, Karlsson will probably win the Norris ... UNLESS there are injuries (knock on wood) OR his team fails to qualify for the playoffs AGAIN.

 

[Rhaegar Targaryen]

In the season opener against Toronto, he played 3:17 of SH TOI and allowed one shot attempt against.

Well one difference, this year it'll be Weber (with MTL media behind him) going for a lifetime achievement award instead of Doughty.

Yep, only the second most used D for his team

[Skinnyjimmy08]

the stat watching haters aren't sure what to say now cause he is leading NHL in +-. That stat is usually the go-to stat to rag on him.

He looks to be on a different level already. Lots of PP time, a ton of PK time and ofcourse playing unreal offensively and extremely good defensively

 

[Riddum]

Best forward who just happens to be put at D since Federov did it.

I'm pretty sure there were some irony in that post.

 

[Skinnyjimmy08]

so since an EK thread has started and Burns name/stats have been brought up, I guess that means its time to bring up Doughty?

that's usually how this works every year haha

Doughty 3gp. 1g. 1a. -1

You, sir, are good.

Doughty is an actual NHL defenseman.

yes true.. EK is obviously not a dman lol

Im just putting his stats. I love Doughty but just started the 3 man battle of stats like we do every year

its going to get a lot worse with Quick not there to insulate his play.

ya ill be curious how Doughty will be this season since Quick is out and the team isn't looking near as good as usual this season.

EK has been a superstar on a bad Sens team always. I wanna see how Doughty will be on this team now if Kings are an average team

 

[DJB]

Going to be interesting to watch Doughty now that he doesn't have Quick to clean up his mistakes
