Star Swede William Karlsson makes a comeback after six months

The 33-year-old center and assistant captain for Vegas has not played since November 8 due to a lower-body injury. When Vegas hosts Anaheim, led by Leo Carlsson, tonight in the first game of the quarterfinal series, it's time for a comeback.

The expectations?

"A hat trick and six assists," he jokes, but continues:

"I just want to get back into it and hopefully have a good game," he said in a video interview on Vegas' website.

William Karlsson won the Stanley Cup with Vegas in 2023.
