Karlsson went pointless with two shots and three blocked shots in the Penguins' 4-2 defeat to the Blackhawks on Tuesday.

EDGE Analysis

Acquired this offseason from San Jose, Karlsson was unable to hit the scoresheet Tuesday versus the Blackhawks. He posted two shots and three blocked shots along with a minus-2 rating in 26:04 TOI. After posting a career-high 101 points with the Sharks last year, Karlsson will have a chance to put up another strong offensive season playing on the top power-play unit and top-four defensive core. His next chance to record his first point as a Penguin will come Friday against the Capitals.
