He couldn't move laterally because his groin was held together with scotch tape and dreams.

"Erik Karlsson is bad defensively" is a tired narrative that has been disproven more times than a 9/11 conspiracy. He can get danced. He can lose his man. So can Gio. It doesn't make either bad defensively, it's just what happens when you play against the other team's top line 25 minutes a night.
