Obviously he has great numbers for a young defenseman, but do you think that he will take the next step in becoming the superstar he has the potential to be? Can he put up 60+ points next year?
Implying that Dahlin's the one player, huh?Depends on what they do with the rest of their roster. One player can't carry it all.

He's a lock for 50 points next year 100%
Not really. He mostly is what he is.
I understand what you’re saying, and I think a bunch of people in here are sleeping on him, but being on pace for 55pts is not at all a lock for 50 this year or a lock for 60 next year. Nonetheless amazing for a 19 year old and he will be an annual 60 pt guy in a year or 270pts would have been a better question.
He was a lock for 50 this year, and a lock for 60 next season (or to be on pace for 60 with a possible shortened season or injury).
What he is a defenseman who has yet to play an NHL game over the age of 19.
Doesn't really match your answer seeing as it is unlikely that a 19yo with the highest potential in several decades (for a defenseman) has plateaued.
he's fine it's the team that needs to breakout
The crazy thing is he played the entire season as a 19 year old, only turning 20 once the NHL was on pause due to Covid-19.He was on pace for 55 points this season as a 20 year old, with only having Eichel to dish the puck to.
He already is in the same tier as young studs like Makar, Hughes, Fox, Heiskanen, ect.
Well, he's not even the best defenseman for his draft class anymore so that at least is a soft plateau, isn't it?What he is a defenseman who has yet to play an NHL game over the age of 19.
