LD Rasmus Dahlin - Frolunda HC, SHL (2018, 1st, BUF) Part 2

[The Winter Soldier]

Whomever drafts him, he will be a game changer to that franchise.

 

[93LEAFS]

Looks like a possible repeat of Hedman - Tavares draft in Dahlin - Svechnikov as a franchise defenceman goes against a franchise forward

I think the center/winger dynamic alters it, although, some questioned Tavares's ability to stay there due to his sub-par skating. Dahlin is also ahead of Hedman, but a lot of Hedman's stock was built around how projectable he was due to his combo of size and skating ability.

 

[The Winter Soldier]

No, Dahlin is of a higher pedigre than Hedman, Svechnikov is at a lower pedigre than Tavares

I would say this is a spot on. Dahlin is higher regarded than Hedman and Tavares was certainly higher rated than Svechnikov is entering the draft.

NHL's media throws the word generational around like its nothing. I remember last season they said theyre confident someone in 2017 draft ends up being a generational talent.

Not saying Dahlin cant be one but NHL's media saying it doesnt really say much more than that he is a great player

Yep, it was Makar. lol

It was more for it being an interesting read and for the poster below you who needed to see NA media labling him generational.

Dahlin just scored the 1-0 goal vs Linköping. Anybody have a video?
Now 2+1 for the season.

[Orthodox Caveman]

Red Wings need him badly. It's our turn to be great again.

 

[Chainshot]

I've had a lot of fun keeping tabs on Olofsson because I get to watch Dahlin instead. Whoever lands him in the draft is getting one hell of a hockey player.

4 cups in 20 years; yea no thanks.

Rasmus Dahlin in my mind will be an elite #1 dman and will got ahead of Svechnikov in the draft.

Hopefully your luck has run dry for a bit. It's everyone else's turn to have a top defencemen.

 

[canuckslover10]

Please the canucks need him more than anyone

You just started being bad!

 

[Daximus]

You just started being bad!

Given the Wings last 20 some years I don't think anyone feels bad for them.

 

[Amazing Kreiderman]

Better quality:

Man. That was some game. He is so slick. I went to the game to track Lias Andersson but also kept an eye on Dahlin. He is definitely the real deal.

 

[Keep Sorokin Me Babe]

Didn't see this posted, the hype surrounding this guy (especially for a non-Canadian prospect) is insane

 

[Acallabeth]

Reminds me of Larsson draft-1 season hype.

Reminds me of Larsson draft-1 season hype.

Come on now. Wasn’t even in the same universe.

 

[Slimmy]

An assist tonight. Does everything right with the puck. Uncanny.

 

[Hockeyfrilla]

Good rush

 

[Oneiro]

Since Neidermayer, I don't think I've seen a player with that much deception in his footwork.

Breaking ankles left and right.

 

[thrillhous]

Come on now. Wasn’t even in the same universe.

I don't agree. Larsson was viewed as potentially the next Lidstrom in his D-1 season and the start of his draft season. The hype was enormous.

 

[maaran]

Good rush

Lol, he just skates through their whole team

 

[Juxtaposer]

I don't agree. Larsson was viewed as potentially the next Lidstrom in his D-1 season and the start of his draft season. The hype was enormous.

Every highly-touted Swedish defenseman is viewed as the next Lidstrom.

I’m not saying the hype wasn’t enormous. Just that the hype for Dahlin is more. I’ve seen multiple prospect guys say that Dahlin is the best D prospect they’ve ever seen. Presumably “ever” includes 2011.

Besides, Larsson took a step back in his draft year. Dahlin isn’t.

Good rush

Now that’s just silly, against men.
