This is a false narrative surrounding Dahlin’s rookie year due to some of the regression we saw in the second half defensively his *sophomore* season, which then became a full blown issue under Krueger. The starting point was actively beaten down for a little while His advanced D metrics season 1 were all solid. Not to mention the fact it’ll probably take Power his first 3 post draft seasons to put up the production Dahlin did in 1 Edited January 25, 2023 by Thorny Quote

At age 20 he is so good and far far ahead of where Dahlin was a few years ago. 5 minutes ago, Thorny said: Totally disagree. Dahlin was one of the better dmen in the nhl and one of our best statistical players at *18*. Power was in school. Dahlin was better at 18 than Power is now, at *20*. Dahlin had a slump under Krueger, that’s it I think you're both right. They're incredibly different players. Dahlin's skill and control were amazing, he attempted the audacious puck-handles and truly wow moments. Sometimes it backfired. As an 18 year-old, he managed to get back and diffuse a bunch of those mistakes. Then Krueger happened and he couldn't be who he was. Fast forward to now, and his defensive game has matured, his IQ and passing are still off the charts, and he no longer backs down from anything. Power is different. Power doesn't attempt the impossible. He's so smooth, controlled, and fluid. He's had the benefit of NA ice and college coaching (even if just for a season) that's allowed him to be a more defensive stalwart earlier. However, I don't think he'll ever reach Dahlin's offensive bravado. Yes, he'll pinch for the tap-in, but the ... derring do! is not a Power quality. But he'll be oh so reliable. 1 Quote
