Fifty. 5-0. Green's best year... best... was 40. [/i] Karlsson. is. amazing. - Pengwin7 Thu, 06 Sep 2012 08:07:49 +0100 http://hockey.dobbersports.com/index.php/home-mainmenu-1/24-rambling/4876-september-06-2012#comment-22434 I too am sick of Karlsson's value always being compared to Green's. When recieving offers, it's always "yeah, 78pts....but it's only one year.....look what happened to Green"....garbage. If anyone has watched any Sens games, it's clear Karlsson is the engine behind their scoring. Green on the other hand, while a solid puck mover, had Ovi, Backstom and Semin exploding with points. When they slowed production, so did Green. Who did Karlsson have....Spezza is great but didn't put the points Green's teamates had. Here's to Karlsson having a even bigger year!! - Jake44 Thu, 06 Sep 2012 06:41:02 +0100 http://hockey.dobbersports.com/index.php/home-mainmenu-1/24-rambling/4876-september-06-2012#comment-22432 I have encountered the same points, bizzl. Received one good offer of a 35-40 goal scoring winger who shoots a lot (but not much else), but I'm with you in terms of wanting to hold on to him. - angus Thu, 06 Sep 2012 06:05:33 +0100 http://hockey.dobbersports.com/index.php/home-mainmenu-1/24-rambling/4876-september-06-2012#comment-22431 I own Karlsson and have mentioned his name in a few trade discussions. The biggest problem I've had is that I can't accurately set his value. The comparison is always Green, but Karlsson is the one driving the offense in Ottawa whereas Green had Ovechkin and Boudreau, and hadn't had his injuries yet. Because of that I feel that Karlsson has more value now than Green did then. Green was traded for some major pieces in my league, but Karlsson isn't generating nearly as much interest. I guess for now I'll hang onto him and enjoy the ridiculous numbers. - bizzl Thu, 06 Sep 2012 05:59:19 +0100 http://hockey.dobbersports.com/index.php/home-mainmenu-1/24-rambling/4876-september-06-2012#comment-22428 I agree with Duklanation, it sounds like he wants all of the love and commitment from the Caps but not willing to give anything back. Why should they waste a spot at prospects camp on a player that isn't even going to be playing in NA for the next two years. - UKflames Thu, 06 Sep 2012 00:10:55 +0100 http://hockey.dobbersports.com/index.php/home-mainmenu-1/24-rambling/4876-september-06-2012#comment-22425 Kuznetsov sounds like another Radulov. At least with this guy maybe there wont even be a tease. - DuklaNation Wed, 05 Sep 2012 20:07:00 +0100
