There is zero chance that Karlsson signs a long term sweetheart deal with any team.

His contract will eventually be an anchor for some team. That's the nature of a 7-8 year deal in a cap world when a player is in the 30 year old range.

What is one year worth of an elite player for the potential opportunity of signing a huge contract which will eventually stink?

IMO, it's not as much as most posters are saying.

If I'm Colorado, I'm not throwing the Sens pick into the mix.
