Relax, Karlsson is a ROOKIE! Yes he has been one of our better players on defence but now it is time too see what Picard can do to step up and fill the void left by the injury.
Although Picard has not been playing with the team he has been practicing and know how coach Clouston want the defence to play.
I believe they will be fin in Toronto and have win number 12 under their belts.
No need to push the panic button. (yet!)

After all, we kept on winning a few games (lasted for like 4 games...which is more than I expected) without Spezza, which IMO is a MUCH MUCH bigger loss than "Karlsson".

I don't agree, i know i am making Karlsson sound like a Lidstrom but that's what he is to us.
Spezza was not and will not be a bigger loss than Karlsson...Why?
It's like saying Toews goes down but you still have Kane, while Keith goes down and you have umm Harjallassamma?
It's about depth, not loss and we are as hollow as anything on defence.
Cause Regin says hi. Regin stepped up and easily became this team's top center scoring highlight goals and setting them up like no other.
Karlsson easily won us 2 games. Right now our streak could have easily been over at 8 games. Karlsson made the play to Fisher for us to break the record and made that pass to Alfy for us to extend the winning streak.
Who's going to step up? PICARD? Nice.
Spezza was not a big loss cause Regin was beyond exceptional, Who's going to continue our dominance from the blueline now? Softy Kuba?
Karlsson is not a HUGEEE loss, but he is the reason why walked away with easy wins against tough ass teams, what i mean is, he made our wins look easy cause our blueline had everything.
