‘Dahlin has drawn comparisons to another Swedish defenseman: Nicklas Lidstrom. Comparisons to a Hall-of-Famer and one of the best defensemen of all time without playing a game are, as always, premature, but Dahlin has earned the hype with his outstanding play in Sweden. Lidstrom himself compared Dahlin’s skating ability to Rangers legendary defenseman Brian Leetch. A terrific two-way player, Dahlin is as impressive with his physicality defensively as he is with his stick-handling offensively.’
