Mike Sullivan tells me that the @penguins are ready to unleash Karlsson and Letang on the same power play.“The power play is very important to Erik and Kris. So we’ll start with both of them on the top unit. And so we'll see how it goes. We've got a lot of options."

After winning the Golden Puck as Sweden's best hockey player, Erik Karlsson opened up about his ongoing trade process. Confirmed he's spoken with Pittsburgh, Carolina, Seattle and Toronto -- plus others -- and says "I just want the best chance to get to the best team." https://t.co/7jEWe2KvPg

Unless Nathan MacKinnon gets at least 3 points at 5v5 in tonight's game, Erik Karlsson will finish the season leading all players in 5v5 points (64). Again, no defenceman since 2007 has come close to doing that, and he did it on a team that was 20th in 5v5 goals.

Erik Karlsson is the first European D-man to score 100 points, and at age 32 he is the oldest D-man to reach 100 points in a season.He is the 4th oldest player to reach 100 points behind Gordie Howe, Johnny Bucyk and Daniel Alfredsson.

@ScottBilleck
Erik Karlsson. Second of the night. 4-2. 100th point of the season, becoming the first since Brian Leetch to reach the mark more than 30 years ago (1991-92). #Sharks.

@cmasisak22
There are now seven defensemen in NHL history who have scored 97 points in a season:

Orr (6x), Coffey (5x), Potvin (2x), Leetch, MacInnis, Housley ... and now Erik Karlsson.

Karlsson is the first defenseman to hit 97 in 30 years (Housley in 1992-93).

Erik Karlsson on his immediate future: "I think it would be weird if (Mike Grier) comes to me with three days left and asked me to waive my no-move. We've had plenty of time for that if that was the case so I'm not too worried about it. I'm just here to play hockey."
