Erik Karlsson Playing Tonight is Phenomenal. Does He Steal the Masterton? |

The Bill Masterton Memorial Trophy is awarded annually to the National Hockey League player who best exemplifies the qualities of perseverance, sportsmanship, and dedication to ice hockey.
Winner for 2013?
Well, in my opinion taking this whole season into account, the winner of this award should be YOU, the NHL fan. The devoted followers of this sport deserve it for persevering another pointless lockout and not losing their passion for a sport that saw the players and owners more interested in small wins versus each other instead of winning hockey games for three months ticket-buying fans already paid for.
OK, that mini rant aside....
What Erik Karlsson is doing today by returning to the lineup is as Masterton worthy as anything I have seen this season.
What do you think?
