Karlsson has yet to play in the NHL this season but has five goals and six points in seven games with Abbotsford, he missed several weeks with an undisclosed injury.
The 25-year-old went pointless in four games with Vancouver last season and had 60 points (23 goals, 37 assists) in 60 games with Abbotsford.
Di Giuseppe has appeared in just four games for Abbotsford this season and has not recorded a point after suffering an injury early in the season.
The 30-year-old recorded five goals and five assists in 51 games with Vancouver last season.
Given the strong play of Max Sasson and the return of J.T. Miller it will be interesting to see where or when Di Giuseppe or Karlsson get into the lineup.
