LGR4GM Posted May 30, 2018 Report Posted May 30, 2018 I can think of another Jack whose wing you would look good on. Big smile with that one Jack McBain has met with Sabres Scouts, but no Combine Interview He isn't the best skater. Ty Dellandrea on the other hand. Quote
IKnowPhysics Posted May 30, 2018 Report Posted May 30, 2018 I guess that's the benefit with not having to waste your interviews on 1st round prospects. We know we're picking Dahlin #1, so lets focus on mining a diamond in round 2. Diamonds are nice, but our depth is in that area too. We've only taken one winger, Brett Murray, in rounds 2-5 since taking Eichel. Quote
Brawndo Posted May 30, 2018 Report Posted May 30, 2018 He isn't the best skater. Ty Dellandrea on the other hand. Sorry Liger, I should have been more specific that was actually two separate players I was talking about. The first player was Oliver Wahlstrom that I told I can think of another Jack whose wing you would look good on, he smiled and said Eichel’s. Quote
LGR4GM Posted May 31, 2018 Report Posted May 31, 2018 Oh hahaha. He would look great but, I'm 100% sure we're taking Dahlin. I can't say why exactly (ik he's the consensus and it isn't that) but we're definitely taking Dahlin. It's just a formality at this stage. The Sabres are already preparing for his arrival at prospect camp. Quote
Brawndo Posted May 31, 2018 Report Posted May 31, 2018 I did not have Dahlin, but I did have Adam Boqvist who is Dahlin’s Roomie for the week. He mentioned that he is having dinner with the Red Wings and I said that Dahlin must be busy as well. He said the Sabres have him booked from 2-7 today. An extensive interview, locker room tour and Dinner with the Brass. Dahlin even joked that the Sabres will probably have me sign my contract sometime today as well. Quote

Did they check Dahlin's hereditary arthritis? I'm assuming that came up in his physical. His brother retired at age 20 because of it. Quote

I didn’t access Dahlin’s Records because of HIPPA, but one of the most common forms of hereditary arthritis is Rheumatoid. Bloodwork specific to Rheumatoid most likely has been checked in Sweden along with inflammatory markers, per reports there are no concerns with him. Rasmus Dahlin is fine Quote

Wyldnwoody44 Posted June 1, 2018 Report Posted June 1, 2018 But but but, brawndo, did you check his knuckle joints to confirm, we seeing Hendon/Bouchard nodes?!?! The world needs to know.....also aren't we worried about that Tyler Myers Marfans syndrome!! Quote
LTS Posted June 1, 2018 Report Posted June 1, 2018 My 14 year old son did 3 last week.... so if they don't beat him I must have an NHL prospect in my house, eh? Quote
Brawndo Posted June 1, 2018 Report Posted June 1, 2018 Oliver Wahlstrom is definitely a one and done, feels he is ready to play in the NHL this year. Jett Woo says he is more a defensive defenseman Caden Addison says he is more a offensive defenseman Some of the goalies had the worse visual acuity Quote
Beer Posted June 1, 2018 Report Posted June 1, 2018 (edited) Any info on the Sabres meeting with Dahlin? I’m going to say he is the in 7-8 pull-up range. Edited June 1, 2018 by Beer Quote
pi2000 Posted June 1, 2018 Report Posted June 1, 2018 pull-up cam: https://www.sportsnet.ca/hockey/nhl/watch-live-2018-nhl-scouting-combine-saturday-9-m-et/ pull-up cam: https://www.sportsnet.ca/hockey/nhl/watch-live-2018-nhl-scouting-combine-saturday-9-m-et/ Nice.... thanks! I say this every year.... why not put them on the ice and put them through some tests similar to the NFL combine. Time them sprinting, measure shot speed and accuracy, agility, passing accuracy, etc... Just seems strange that for a sport played on ice, the combine testing involves only off-ice testing. Makes little sense.... thanks Bettman, you jackass. Quote

LGR4GM Posted June 1, 2018 Report Posted June 1, 2018 Any info on the Sabres meeting with Dahlin? I’m going to say he is the in 7-8 pull-up range. He visited with Botterill and the scouting staff. They toured the locker room and facilities. He didn't visit with Housley. Quote
