A million times worse.

And don’t look now, because the end is nowhere in sight.

Weeks after captain Erik Karlsson had a face-to-face parking lot confrontation with teammate Mike Hoffman over a belief Hoffman’s fiancée, Monika Caryk, was guilty of unthinkable harassment of his wife, the matter wasn’t settled.

Melinda Karlsson, filed an application for an order of protection alleging Caryk has threatened her and posted “over 1,000 negative and derogatory statements” from Nov. 17 up to and through stillbirth of the Karlsson’s son on March 19.

The accusations go far beyond disturbing: Caryk allegedly wished the child and mother to die and that someone “take out (Karlsson’s) legs to end his career.”

Hoffman emphatically denies Caryk’s involvement.

“We’ve been aware of this situation for months,” said Mike Liut, the managing director of the hockey division at Octagon Agency, which represents Hoffman. “This happened at the end of the year. We’ve been very clear with the club. I’ve talked to the players’ association about it. We’ve been very up front about Mike’s support of Monika and denial of what’s going on. He told that to Erik face-to-face at the end of the season.
