Erik Karlsson has been on the ice for 11/13 goals against so far this series.

And he got the primary assist on the game winner to send the VGK packing. He is clearly done.

Close this dumb thread already, the guy leads the Sharks in points and is 5th league wide. Whatever deficiencies he has due to injury surely aren't making him a "liability".

Game 7 will be his last game as a Shark in Vegas. He might even take a tour of the Vegas dressing room on his way out!

You really don’t know much at all eh?

 

[jetsforever]

9 assists in 7 games is pretty good

I feel so funky.

During that last shift he suddenly looked like he wanted the game to end right there.
And then it did. He is quite good at hockey.

The funny thing is this post was always going to be wrong.

Game 7 was played in San Jose.

Where the haters at?

EK65 is clearly still injured, his turns and first steps are missing, but he really looked possessed in the 3rd and OT to close out the series. Haters will hate.

His turns/pivots have been an issue ever since he entered the league.

Praise be. Playoff Karlsson is back.

Um okay?

Maybe I was kinda harsh, but your comment just reeks of bigotry. I mean, how can you even write that and still say that you follow hockey?

 

[DrJustice]

You gotta take risks to make plays.

I'd say the Sharks will live with the overall results.

 

[PeterSidorkiewicz]

Karlsson looks really really injured but is still getting the job done. Go EK Go.

Because I have watched him play ever since he joined the NHL and the team that I follow?

His pivots have always been an issue and this is pre ankle/achilles injury.

That was always what I was thinking from the moment I saw it - lol

I guess he wasn't always great at them but they took a huge hit after Cooke. You could visibly see that he had to change how he would pivot after Cooke.

Karlsson has always been an extremely unorthodox skater when it comes to defending. He is extremely fast in a straight line towards the o-zone but he has issues pivoting and skating backwards. He will often turn all the way around and skate in a straight line rather than skate backwards.

Just a high risk, high reward player.

On the ice for 16 of 23 goals for, and 17 of 25 goals against.

Only -3 in seven games on a team that advanced. Ryan McDonagh was -6 in four games on a team that didn't.
