Can we acknowledge his speed, he takes 2-3 strides and is blowing the others away who are at like 6-8 strides! World class!
Whats with the no visor
Just a broken Sens fan here.. admiring the greatness we once had.
I always liked San Jose for the teal and the Wookie, but now they’ve got Captain Karl with them. It’s going to be exciting to watch the Western Conference this year
Look at that smile
overrated
I'm happy for Karlsson. All the best bud.
The Sens have no idea what they just did, the worst mistake in history.

I dont know about you guys, but sharks have become one of my favorite teams to watch this season… wishing Karlsson a ton of luck. Hopefully hes with an organization that'll treat him right
Not happy as a Kings fan, but no denying Karlsson is one of the best and makes the Sharks even more dangerous.
For those who say that the sharks stole Erik, you have to realize Ottawa just dumped a bunch of cap for future youngsters, and I think that’s this deal is more even than people think.
0:29 "It was nice, y'know, just to see him in a Sharks uniform…"
No, it wasn't. It was mostly just fuckin' heartbreaking.
At least the Gretzky trade kinda-sorta made sense. This is just franchise suicide. I can no longer justify my fanship. Bullshit.

He's ready to win!
A gifted player indeed. His skating is 2nd to none; speed and agility will raise the standards for Sharks team. An ever evolving, exciting team to watch.
Vancouverite here. Looking forward to watching Karlsson play on the west coast. Especially looking forward to watching him ensure that Kesler never wins a cup 🙂
Is karlsson gonna get the C? Or is he gonna get an A or what?
Too bad … NHL isnt NBA… well see if Erik can bring the cup to Joe before he retires.
Biggest steal in 2018? Senators management are beyond mentally challenged trading away their bread and butter.
Karlsson looks out the window……hey hunny the sun is shining. Smiles, goes to work.
So sad! My favorite player since he came into the league. What was Ottawa thinking?
Lego
The Sharks are more like Great white Sharks now …lol
fuck my life……
it still amazes me how fast the sens fell. they went from 1 OT away from being in the stanley cup finals. TO a horrible team the next season, to an even worse team the next season but without their #1 pick in the next draft, karlsson, and hoffman lmao
Overrated defensively
Erik is awesome, Stevie ray genoch here… "He came as advertised"
Lol im loving it! As mcdonald's is closing down everywhere!!! Yes yes!
This is magic i could not hope for much more… Yes yes close all the mcdonald's.
They make people fat and when it remindes me of my mother because she did me a mcdonald's birthday party…
And regular gelousy happened… So zack goes on to cry alot… So he is in my video's pathetically. Im so sorry about this for the public of America…
Had i have a different friend ship or none at all this would have been a much nicer video.
