Bust… no playoffs. Powerplay sucked. Nobody got a hundred points either.
Bad want me to bring up all the garbage goals he let on? Cause yall don't talk about it
Erik Karlsson was anything but good this season. The only penguin who played well this season was Sidney Crosby
When Karlsson dominates next season, all of you haters aren’t allowed to cheer for him either.
Karlsson is a very talented hockey player and i still like the trade was worth it. But he didn't live up to the contract and hype. I also think he was the wrong player to target, he isn't the right fit for what this team really need. Hence missing the playoffs and blowing plenty of leads.
Shit Dawgs Scouting Report of Erik Karlsson:
Not good around his net but he can back check and choke out players against the boards when he wants to. He only wanted to the last part of the season during the push.
Risky Business:
He’s got a good outlet pass but forces it sometimes. He can also dangle on the blue line and keep plays in but when these things don’t work it looks god damn awful.
He can skate like an ice princess and he can pass like a mofo. Forces a shot a the net at times looking for a deflection or rebound but no one is usually there to capitalize. Not sure whose fault is that.
Needs to learn when to step up and be the man. Besides Crosby, he’s the only one left to run the show. At 7mil he’s fine but at 10, or whatever, he’s gotta step the f up.
Hot Karl, Cold Karl, E Karl. Never know what you’re gonna get.
Get Malkin off the power play !
