So that's why I say it's a careless play and something the NHL should be looking to get players to stop doing.

Actually happens quite often when your in pursuit of another guy, especially when the player your pursuing is as shifty as a guy like Karlsson. You think he is going one way and he quickly goes the other way, you try and keep up with him you could easily lose balance for a second and have to try and adjust. It was just an extremely unfortunate freak accident.
