Regardless of exactly how Karlsson plays, fact of the matter is it was an excellent deal for the Pens. In one move Dubas essentially undid the entire Hextall era (except Carter).

Even if he's a 60 point player next year, this is an improvement on the roster this team had 48 hours ago. Given the assets he had to work with, Dubas did about as well as you could reasonably hope for.
It could be higher...if the Pens are bottom 10 this season there is a good chance they will be bottom 10 the next.

I think the player is over rated big time. If you guys dont that's fine, let's see how much the Pens have improved. We will find out on the ice.
