Karlsson notched two assists and three shots on goal in Thursday's 4-3 overtime win over the Kings.

EDGE Analysis

Karlsson missed 15 games due to surgery on his forearm in late January. His return to a top-four role and the first power-play unit provided the Sharks with an instant spark of offense. The 31-year-old set up goals by Brent Burns and Alexander Barabanov in the contest. Karlsson's at 28 points (nine on the power play), 86 shots on net and a minus-4 rating through 34 appearances this season. Fantasy managers shouldn't hesitate to activate him after his strong showing in his return.
