Golden Knights fans react to the latest William Karlsson news

Did you hear the news? Certainly, you know who we're talking about here, right? You know that William Karlsson skated on the ice with the regulars in Friday's practice. That's a significant development for a Golden Knights team suddenly in the driver's seat for a potential Stanley Cup.

The Vegas Golden Knights center has been out of commission since November 8 with a lower-body injury. This regular season, he scored four goals and three assists in 14 games, marking a massive downturn in production. But that's usually what happens when you deal with debilitating injuries for a chunk of the season.

So, what better way to bolster your overall depth than to get a key veteran back? The Golden Knights are adding another solid special teams player and two-way star back into the lineup. That's great news for a potential matchup with the Anaheim Ducks, who shocked the Edmonton Oilers in the first round.

Still, you must win Game 6 to get there. Let's look at how Golden Knights fans reacted on social media and see if it made them pop. Were they excited to see the Original Misfit back in the mix?

How Vegas Golden Knights fans reacted to the latest William Karlsson news

So, how did Vegas Golden Knights fans take this shocking bit of news? Well, let's just say that they were still surprised, despite the news that he was expected to come back after winning a round or two.

Many of these reactions were wholesome and beautiful. Golden Knights LOVE their Original Misfits, particularly Karlsson. He's grown into one of the most beloved figures in franchise history, particularly with his endearing personality.

So, don't be surprised when you see answers like this pop up on social media. It paints a broader picture of how fans perceive one of their "Day F*****g One" heroes.

Of course, some of the reactions were much more concise. Like, we're talking about only needing three letters to describe the news.

It's funny how three letters can describe a situation. It's also funny how absence makes the heart grow fonder. Or in this case, it makes people forget that you merely existed. Such is the case for Karlsson, who had some light-hearted tweets about his situation.

Sometimes, it doesn't take a single word to describe a news piece. That was the case with Karlsson's news, as some fans had simple reactions to hearing about the Original Misfit coming back.

Obviously, that's apt for the moment. While the news left some people speechless, it left others to whip out some jokes and make light of the situation.

The news still surprised some fans, with some thinking that he'd be back by the second round.

While Karlsson skating around sounds nice, there's a good reason for that. He loves skating around his teammates, so he's still not expected to be around until the next round.

Still, it's exciting to see one of the most treasured figures in franchise history make his return. It'll also be a big boost since he provides ample scoring and two-way play. Boy, I can't wait for this "F*****g guy" to make some noise during the Stanley Cup playoffs.
