thewookie1 Posted November 30, 2021 Report Posted November 30, 2021 Dahlin is having a very rough night. Krueger truly wrecked his ability to think clearly. Heavy forechecking teams seem to get to him; give him time and he’ll make you pay but the book on him is out. I’m unsure how you fix that; drill it into him? Alright boys, time to climb back into it; it’s hockey fights cancer night. Quote

Please sir can I have another??? Dahlin is having a baaaad game so far. Yikes. 1 Quote

Alright boys, time to climb back into it; it’s hockey fights cancer night. I’m not a coach but when I was kid the coach threw the puck into the corner and two guys went in after it. Two go in and one comes out. Eventually and some sore body parts later you learn. Quote
Palm Trees And Taxes Posted November 30, 2021 Report Posted November 30, 2021 I think we just need to all come to the cold harsh realization that many scouts missed on Dahlin and we will be fortunate if Rasmus becomes a 45-50 point defenseman and good on the PP that is at least adequate defensively at his peak. 1 Quote

Totally different players. I try to remember what hedman looked like at 21 and other similar style plus I’d guess Rasmus would look slightly better on the Avs. Quote

My guess is 25. Dahllins played 218 games before this one, so, game 219 I say ship him out. I'll wager on the over If 25 is your powers games played benchmark. Dahlins no longer a rookie, he's not only shown no progression, he's actually a bad NHL defenseman. And at this point, the debate is moot, imho. 3 Quote

And it could not come at a worse time. For a number one pick to be a bust at this point in Sabres history continues to even further set us back in turning this thing around. Quote

The only thing I can think of is the lack of quality forwards he has in front of him. But it’s getting to the point he’s been overexposed to a losing culture. None of the other reindeer are making these mistakes. Only Rudolph. 3 Quote

And at this point, the debate is moot, imho. You can slice it anyway you want. He’s 21 - lots of examples of dmen that take till 23 or 24 to develop If we are still seeing these plays at 23 / 24 then have at it he should never have been in the NHL at 18. Quote

Buffalonill Posted November 30, 2021 Report Posted November 30, 2021 (edited) People need to chill out on Dahlin hes 21 I swear people don't understand how long it takes to develop a Defenseman Jesus Edited November 30, 2021 by Buffalonill 2 Quote
