Erik Karlsson Discussion Thread Part II - NORRIS Edition

[BondraTime]

Did you not see that move?

Edit: What could be a better use of a Karlsson thread than to upload his greatest moves?

I did, it was a great sequence.

I just find it strange is all.

I agree Ben White needs to bump the breaks big time on 90% of his requests but someone GIF that asap lool

Someone please gif that last Karlsson rush in OT vs Marner. What a dazzling display of speed and hands. We need to keep that in the memory vault.

 

[RuthlessLieutenant]

That rush in OT was beautiful. It's just too bad he couldn't finish. Who else could do that? Not many players have that kind of speed and creativity.

You have no soul if you don't like Karlsson gifs

If you ask me this is the best Karlsson has ever played. Dude is on pace for 71 points playing with the 22nd ranked offense, and he's been an absolute rock all year. Can't say enough about his defensive game this season. Under Boucher he has truly become an elite defenseman in every zone.

Don't care that Burns has a few more points, EK has been the best defenseman and deserves the Norris.

With last year result. Having a few more points should not change anything. But Burns is playing very well to. So let's see if they both keep it up.

 

[BondraTime]

If Burns continues his play, he has it in the bag, regardless of who I'd pick.

Despite a couple of dynamic rushes, his only mention on TSN highlights is of his "turnover" on the Kadri/Mariner goal. The boys in the press box are happy not to consider Erik for Norris voting.

[DrunkUncleDenis]

^ that rush is so filthy. I remember watching it and just thinking.. wow. Candidate for goal of the year if he slides it through Freddy's wickets.

Would have been wicked if Hoffman buried that

especially since Hoffman would bury that more often than not

streamable has a playlist and I've dumped what I had of Karlsson into it. Composition of the playlist is in my usertitle. I even dated/named them since RKL has the ability to remember when plays happened.

I think so to, it's Burns Norris trophy to lose this yr it seems.

Still more than 30 games to play. A LOT can happen in 30+ games. But yes, right now, Burns is probably the front runner. Karlsson and Hedman near him.

Man that play was so good even the Toronto crowd reacted to it.

 

[Nordic*]

If people used Karlsson's defence as an argument as to why he shouldn't win the Norris, in the past, then Burns should be nowhere close to one.

 

[SAK11]

If people used Karlsson's defence as an argument as to why he shouldn't win the Norris, in the past, then Burns should be nowhere close to one.

The problem with this argument is that Karlsson has indeed won 2 Norris trophies. As of now, Burns is the front runner; he leads his team in goals, assists, points, +/-, and ice-time. He's on pace for over 30 goals, something that very few d-men have ever done, and he's 4th overall in league scoring. Plus, San Jose will make the playoffs, and he does kill penalties, too.

 

[starling]

Dang. That was probably the dumbest decision by Karlsson in a long time. There has got to be a rule in OT never to shoot on a rush from the wall like that...
