4 years agoSan Jose Sharks defenseman Erik Karlsson (groin) is expected to return to full health and play with no limitations heading into next season. Karlsson has missed significant time in parts of his first two seasons with the Sharks, as the 30-year-old required surgery after suffering a groin injury prior to the shutdown. Sharks general manager Doug Wilson said he spoke to Karlsson on Thursday and the defenseman told him he is healthy and skating with no limitations. "It might be the first time he's been 100 percent healthy since he's been with us." said Wilson. Karlsson has totaled nine goals, 76 assists and 85 points through his first two seasons with the Sharks. At full health and no limitations, the Swedish defenseman is worthy of being drafted in the early rounds of standard fantasy formats heading into the upcoming NHL season.--Denis Vondrus - RotoBaller
