Senators' Boucher on Karlsson: 'I don't think he needs to practice'
by from on (#2N3SQ)
Erik Karlsson is apparently fine to abide by the Allen Iverson workout routine.
Ottawa's captain was missing from practice Monday, but returned Tuesday, and while his presence is undoubtedly a welcome site, it appears head coach Guy Boucher is indifferent.
"To be honest, I don't think he needs to practice. And I've never said that about a player in my life," Boucher said, according to Sportsnet's Chris Johnston.
Indeed, with a Norris Trophy nomination, the third-most points among defenseman in the regular season, and a share of the lead for points at his position in the postseason, maybe Karlsson's practiced enough.
