Karlsson leads the Sens to victory December 24, 2013

The Ottawa Senators closed out the first half of the season with a commanding 5-0 win over the Pittsburgh Penguins last night.  2012 Norris Trophy winner Erik Karlsson was in top form, scoring a goal and adding two assists. He would go on to be named the first star of the match.  Despite the Senators up-and-down season to date, Karlsson has not missed a beat.  He currently leads all NHL defenseman in both goals (10) and points (37).
