Los Angeles. Eric Carlson really started celebrating Christmas last night.
Scored a goal and assisted on the first goal in three more as San Jose rocked Minnesota.
– It was our best game of the season and everything becomes easier when the whole team performs at this level, says the sixth in Sportbladet’s NHL record after winning 5-2.
The story of Eric Carlson’s resurrection began as amazing as that of the son of Nazareth, whose birthday we will celebrate in the coming days.
The 32-year-old little Tower was once again a beast when he took on the Minnesota Sharks in the final show before the Christmas break.
Already after 44 seconds, he appeared at Philip Gustafsson’s right post and scored his 13th goal of the season. Then he was responsible for the excellent performances of Noah Gregor, Timo Meyer and, in turn, his compatriot Oscar Lindblom.
– Yes, it was really funny when Oscar stuck a disc. I call him Joran now.
Goran?
– Yes, the scorer, like …
Well, the prankster from Landsbro is also happy with his efforts – of course.
– Yes, I was relieved. But overall it was our best game of the season and my job becomes a lot easier when the whole team performs at that level. He says I find more gaps and bridge them more easily.
In total, the “EK65” now totals 46 points. In doing so, he leads the downhill and the Swedish Points League in superior fashion – and Parks sits sixth in the overall points league.
– It’s good to go to the Christmas holidays this way? Yes, it would be worse if the opposite were true, he laughs.
– But yeah, it would be nice to rest and have fun over the weekend.
Joel Ericsson Ek scored one of the visitors’ goals.
