I appreciate what you've managed to do here in getting Karlsson in the roster without breaking up the team, and still getting the major RFAs under contract too.
However, that 4x$9M is going to cause some issues next Summer when Beniers and Tolvanen need new deals and Ebs and Wenny expire. I think it's still a bit rich and a huge risk if he reverts to the seasons he was having of late before the 100pt campaign. Francis has been big on having cap space being one of the advantages of being an expansion team in this period and I don't see him throwing it away now to handcuff himself the next couple of seasons.
And money issues aside there's a whiff of locker room trouble about Karlsson and bringing such a big ego and paycheck into a very tight squad could upset some of what made the magic in Seattle this last season.
All things considered I'd pass on Karlsson.
