I love soft players (especially Europeans) that play on the perimeter. Enigmas are awesome. Grit and heart-and-soul are red flags.
Erik Karlsson is better than your favourite player.

All-Star game is Adnan approved.
No hitting, no fighting and no emotion…must be in his glory.
It needs a little Zenon Konopka. Who’s going to stick up for Karlsson!?

He’ll take care of Phaneuf.

There's plenty of emotion
Except it’s happiness, which has no place in the NHL… I guess.

Was it another swedish defenceman????

If only it was in the 1st, could have had Lundqvist in net.

i was thinking Sedin-Sedin-Alfie Karlsson-Edler would be a great group to put out – but it should have been while Lundqvist was in net
