Maybe it's just in my head because of the TDL, but he's got some McDonagh in him- though without the PP ability. But from a size/mobility/skill/IQ standpoint, and the two way game, they have some similarities.
Am not saying he's going to be McDonagh, just from a stylistic comparison they are similar.

I've made the same link before. He has many of the same qualities that McDonagh has. If he improves his speed he's going to be something else.

He has to bulk up too if he wants his physicality to be as impactful as it was in Junior.
I also thought of McDonagh. But McDonagh's speed allowed him to cover the ice with ease. He was such a good shut down d man against us in the playoffs. He would always catch our forwards and take the puck away.

This is the defenseman of the top 4, which will look great together with the attacking defenseman , clean up after him and perform a rough job
He's a right though, and our attacking dmen (Weber and Petry) are also righties. Anyways, that's only a problem for now, in time the dcore will no doubt change drastically.

In a year or two, trade Petry and let Juulsen be our 2nd pairing RD.
Mete will be the LD in one of our top 2 pairing.
Just need to add another top 4 LD

Dahlin....
He actually plays RD most frequently. His best moves are cutting to the center so I'd keep him there.
On the right side?.....yes, I now remember seeing him play there, don't know if that was on the PP or is he there full time.....
More or less full time. Though with half of the shifts in a game starting on the fly, and his roaming style he plays pretty much everywhere. But I can't recall a faceoff that I've seen him lined up on the left.

Interesting, I dont remember seeing anyone ever list him as a right D but instead as a left D.

I knew he would be NHL ready soon but I'm impressed. I don't think he plays in the AHL again.
As a general rule, player position listings are garbage. There are even players mis-listed in the NHL. Wasn't there some controversy over the first all star team a few years back pertaining to whether Ovechkin played Left or Right wing? I think that was in Taylor Hall's 80 point season.

I noticed this too but thought it was temporary. I'm sure he can play both sides? Lets say we get lucky and draft Dahlin... Where do you play him in our line-up? We wouldn't put him on the 3rd pair RD with Alzner, Benn or Schemko would we?
Also, I think we should entertain the idea of Petry playing on the left side at some point. Might open things up in our defense pairings moving forward. I remember Petry playing LD with Sergachev last year in pre-season a bit. Not sure how comfortable he is there.
Dahlin / Weber
Mete / Petry
Alzner / Juulsen
Benn, Schlemko
or
Mete / Weber
Petry / Dahlin
Alzner / Juulsen
Benn, Schlemko
or (if no Dahlin)...
Mete / Weber
Petry / Juulsen
Alzner / Schlemko
Benn

Petry is a 3D because of his skill set. Juulsen would have to have that skill set to replace Petry. Right now he certainly looks like he has the potential for the 4D position.
The player he reminds me of is Cal De Haan of the Islanders. Not the best skill set but adequate enough to be a 3D due to his good defence and mobility with the puck.

He's been a very reliable Defensive defenseman for a few year now. I'm not surprised he looks good as this is the style of game he plays and he is very comfortable playing it. He knows his game and that is important in development.
Another development success by Sly.
Already this year we see Sly whip D -LO into shape in just 13 games, then there is Carr, Scherbak, Froese and Hudon.
Lol. Lets face it guys, Sly isnt going anywhere.

Wherever he pleases, and I think that's at RD. Defence pairings can be run very well on a dominant/subordinate basis. We can have Weber, Dahlin, and Petry as our 3 RD, and whoever is on the left I basically couldn't care less. Because of the relative strength of one element of the pairing, the pairing should work.
That said if he wants to give it a go on the left side, the obvious combination with Weber could be a lot of fun to watch.

I dont know if Petry is comfortable playing left D like you said. Either way, it would be nice to be able to move Alzner down to the 3rd pairing as that is more of what he is capable of doing at this point. Mete looked extremely good during OT tonight and Juulsen looked good as well, if by some chance we got Dahlin then it would definitely boost the defense with both youth and skill. Imagin in a few years if Weber, Petry and Alzner are traded along with our various 3rd pairing options, the lines would still look good especially with the prospects that we have in juniors right now.
In 5 years time the defense could look like
Dahlin / Juulsen
Mete / Fleury
Staum? Walford?/ Brook
and that is not counting any potentially other defense candidates from this draft. In all honesty that could be a very nice young blueline for the future. However I would not count on getting Dahlin but more of a Boqvist level player in the draft.
One thing I do know for sure though is that we are stacked at goalie prospects lol
