The Ottawa Citizen points out Senators defenceman Erik Karlsson has four goals and five assists in his past five games, pointing out the youngster's game has been elevated since his recent "I'm not some (effing) god or something," comments.
Bobby Ryan, for one, has Karlsson's back in claiming the expectations are over the top.
"It's hard to believe they can be any higher than how he has played," said Ryan. "He's in and around the puck every game. He leads the rush and he's the first guy back. I don't know what (more) could possibly be expected of him, but he has been our best player, I think.
"He has made a couple of mistakes, but he's still a young kid. If he's 23, he's going to make mistakes. But it's pretty ridiculous to watch him take four or five strides and leave guys in the dust like that."
