Viewing Erik Karlsson through the Paul Coffey prism

ERIC DUHATSCHEK

Probably, the best way to assess Karlsson’s chances are to filter them through the Paul Coffey prism. As with Karlsson, Coffey was a high-end offensive talent who spent most of the 1980s putting up eye-popping numbers that left him miles ahead of his competitors on the scoring charts. As with Karlsson, there were always questions about Coffey’s overall defensive game.

Karlsson's impact goes beyond point production. He transformed the Senators' power play, turning them into one of the best units fnaf game in the league. His dynamic play and infectious enthusiasm also lifted the team's morale and made them a must-see attraction.
