Very impressive Corsi in this class of a tournament and especially for an only 17 year old talent. And especially when compared to his teammates in general. But I also have to bring up what a real Corsi-God Heiskanen is with way over 60 and the best in the Finnish team. Although in Liiga he has it even close to 70. Anyway both are absolutely magnificent defencemen talents, and to think that Dahlin is still a year younger than Heiskanen, he has been absolutely amazing.

What I think is most impressive with Dahlins corsi in Karjala Tournament is the fact that he was the only one with a positive corsi on the Swedish team.

That's awesome. I've only seen him for a little over a year now, but I feel I could single out his skating style from any other player in the world. His shiftiness and quick lateral movement is almost unparalleled. Certainly when it comes to defensemen and certainly for players his age.

My colleague was one of Dahlin's coaches during his years in Lidköping and he also mentions Dahlin's skating as to what makes him unique. He has the ability to change direction without losing speed or the puck. Intriguing player to say the least, but still has a lot to learn.
 
Dahlin with another of his sick sick patented "Dahlin-goals" that he does. So effortless and so generational.

The two huge mistakes before 0-1 and 0-2 wasn't as generational.

Amazing prospect and a great goal but he has been the worst player on the ice so far today. Terrible game for him, but it's one more period of hockey to go.

First goal was on him, no doubt. I have no idea what he was even doing there. Second goal was only partially his fault, obviously you don't want to see him lose the puck there but a forward always has to cover for a defenseman entering the offensive zone. Other than that he's been pretty flawless I'd say.

He was not the worst player on the ice, lol. But yep, he struggled early on. Was the only player that made things happen on a team that looked asleep.
Thought his lack of strength was obvious but i just have to say watching his zone entries live is just a thing of beauty. Just looks so flawless. Kind of funny watching guys but 10+ years older than him trying the same but always getting stopped halfway.
