Karlsson's Days in San Jose Seem to be Numbered After Major Information Surfaces

Erik Karlsson was a completely rejuvenated player this season, returning to a form we haven't seen since his days as the captain of the Ottawa Senators. His sudden uptick in production has made him a valuable asset on the trade market, and it seems like Karlsson would like to take full advantage of that fact.

Luke Fox of Sportsnet dropped a massive revelation today, revealing that Karlsson has requested a trade out of San Jose.

It sounds like Karlsson would like a deal to get done as soon as possible, but doesn't have a set timeframe for a trade right now.

Fox added that Karlsson would like to be traded to whatever city gives him the best shot at winning a Stanley Cup, hinting that Karlsson may view his days in the league as numbered.

Karlsson dropped a very interesting quote following the news of his trade request today.

It seems like the veteran blueliner knows his worth in the NHL, and hasn't agreed with his deployment in San Jose.
