I have to think that would be an even greater asset with the man advantage.

No?

More importantly, he can get his shots through.

Cus he's the only guy who doesn't need to collect the puck, reset himself and then spend a second evaluating every time he receives a pass.

I want him on PP1 because of his passing, looking for the backdoor and making defenders get out of position, but most importantly I want his one-timer.

Neither Doughty or Kopitar rarely ever attempt a one-timer.

That will change to a middle class* man's Karlsson after this year. I'll go out on a limb and say I'd lock the kid up to a 1-way, max length contract at around 3/mil a year.

Slava doesn't have the Cup hangover because nobody invited him to the party, and he was forced to sit in the corner of a Manhattan Beach restaurant eating sushi alone.

Honestly, some of us Kings fans do not deserve this type of player here.

You forgot to add....he did all this before 23 years of age.
