When Karlsson was first drafted he was seen as a risky pick. Some went as far to say drafting him at 15th overall was a waste of pick. The pundits believed that the Sens would regret this pick in a few years. They could not have been more wrong. Karlsson has dominated the league since his entry. Having already won two Norris trophies and being a finalist two other times, Karlsson has shown a tremendous level of skill. He is not just considered the best defenceman but a top five player in the league.
