Player Discussion Rasmus Dahlin Part 4 - D (1st Overall, 2018, Frölunda HC, SHL)

[RecycledEichel]

Wonder if playing on the right side would diminish his play, even a little bit. Like he could be a superstar on the right side, but play at another level on the left.

He will be a more productive and dangerous player on the right side than on the left side, the more he himself thinks so.

I am quietly wondering what an overtime shift with Dahlin, Power and Samuelsson together would look like. Perhaps that would be catastrophic .. or maybe not.

[edit:]Or any combination of two of them with Tage Thompson. My thinking is that size matters more with more open space: Power, Samuelsson and Thompson are giants with huge reach.

Power's gonna be a monster in 3-v-3, the way he moves

Well, obviously, after you have the mandatory “Eakin out for the faceoff“ part…

While I'd love to see the all defense combination, I think Power, Dahlin and Tage could be a really amazing formula.

26 staying on the right side next season ?

His 13 goals are the most for a Sabres Dman since 2010 - Jordan Leopold

Power and Dahlin with anyone could be an amazing formula.

Never a doubt. Love this kid and he’s taking flight. 70 plus next season?

70-80 if there are no injuries

Imagine when he's not out there with guys like Hayden, Bjork, Caggiula, and Miller.

Well, even Björk was able to score from his pass. Definitely, the better partners will be next to him, the easier it will be for him. If he played in conventional Colorado or Tampa, he would also score as many points as Hedman or even Makar.

Not loving the fact that he was vacationing in Ibiza. That's more the place you're doing coke & molly at all night raves, rather than a place where you're rejuvenating in a place and treating your body like a temple.

In other words, that Instagram post is like the online equivalent of groundhog day, predicting that Dahlin is going to have a shitty year next season. We should trade him now while his value is still high

Can't wait to watch him this season.
