Something about running into Jumbo Joe in the third period

 

[tny760]

dude's gotta make some serious changes in the next year or two or else he's the next LTIRetirement candidate

Update

Out for season

oh a thumb? ok that's a fluke injury, i retract my last statement

 

[Rangers79]

Terrible stuff for Karlsson. Seems to be having a lot of bad luck since doing go the Sharks.

That being said, Tony DeAngelo would look good in a Sharks jersey, eh? Ya want DeAngelo?

 

[The Macho King]

Its alright - they'll get a good draft pick from it.

Yes that's not bad as when I first saw he was placed on IR as another significant LBI would be devastating, but still just another lost year for the guy and a scary trend only one season into the contract and just more worries for the Sharks without their 1st round pick.

Lafreniere to Ottawa just got a bit more real.

Jesus did Ottawa ever fail up with that trade.

i mean he's definitely missed a lot of games last couple seasons but i can't reasonably say anything now that it's a thumb injury. i mean that kinda stuff happens.

Cripes, when it rains it pours

 

[Fixxer]

Ottawa moved him in time. phew!

NO.

But seriously... That may be the biggest stroke of luck for a team in some time. The fan base deserves it, but the owner sure as hell doesn't.

Their front office (Minus their amateur scouting, which is good) managed to fail their way into possibly two of Lafreniere/Byfield/Stutzle/Raymond/Drysdale. Two of those on top of Tkachuk and Chabot sets up a pretty nice core for the next 10 years.

Karlsson still helping out the Sens a year and a half after being traded... impressive.

 

[Rabid Ranger]

Addition by subtraction-right HF?

 

[serp]

Man what a season for the Sharks . 3 core players lost for the year now. The season wasn't going well with all of them in the lineup either but man thats just insane.

 

[TeddyBare]

Huge fan of Karlsson

but he just hasn't looked himself, he looks so disinterested in hockey this year.

 

[Bowie22]

Perfect shitstorm of a season.

 

[Three On Zero]

fixed for you

 

[Icarium]

Just me or there are more long-term injuries to star players than usual this year?

 

[GKJ]

For the best for everyone. Karlsson has more battles to fight, he doesn’t need to be putting on miles right now.

A lot since coming out of the ASG/bye weeks, all the time off and then being expected to ramp it right back up is terrible for their bodies

 

[Rebels57]

That team desperately needs to move on from Thornton and get a fresh start via a few re-tooling trades.

Couture, Hertl, Meier, Labanc is a respectable forward core to build around but they'll need to draft well. That Karlsson trade really backfired and it will set them back.
