Dead. Sutter would kill him with the first week.
Karlsson is a terrible hockey player, albeit with elite offensive skills.
His points are high because he's allowed to roam around the ice without regard to defence. If he ever improved his defensive play, his offence would look more ordinary.
I assume the plan was to help them lose games and make Karlsson look like a good hockey player so they dump him.
Now that he's looking productive, if SJ could trade him for nothing other than salary relief they should jump on it. It may be their last chance.
3 first round picks? I don't think so.
