Erik Karlsson, today, made a «HUGE» statement. Karlsson is one of the NHL's highest paid players ($11.5 million AAV), but he hasn't played like it recently. Despite his injuries, he doesn't appear like the attacking force he previously was.
"I still think I'm one of the best players in the world," Karlsson told reporters Saturday.
Ummm, he clearly doesn't remember how good he was before.
