So:
1- No Walking - let alone skating all summer
2- had part of his ankle removed during surgery
3-Did not play any pre-season games and even as he comes back they are giving him more off days to make sure he didn't over do it - as a result he is still not in full game shape
4- No Marc Methot
He has now 12 points in 8 games. is one point back of the league lead in defenceman in basically half the games and has the THIRD highest PPG total in the entire league. The other two guys have the benefit of playing with eachother in Tampa.
Matthews has 1.28 PPG for example. Karlsson has a 1.5 PPG
And if you look at Karlsson since he was 21, he's always shown that he only gets better as the season progresses.
