Crapolla that aint good that Bennings shopping him what happend
IT has to do with the tier 2 Swedish league and him graduating to the top tier where Petterrsen is now playing, or did I miss some sarcasm

He doesn't do sarcasm. He just didn't understand that this wasn't about Dahlen's NHL rights.

Two players who will never play in the NHL for two players who have already carved out NHL careers. Could be worse...

Something for nothing can never be a bad thing.
Even if it's only a little something.

Good to hear that Dahlen might move into the SHL. Would really like to see him honing his craft in a better league.

Go ahead foot
So Dahlen is staying the season with Timra in the second-division Swedish Allsvenskan....kind of disappointing really.....Thought a season in Utica or in the top-tier SHL might have benefited him more....it'll be interesting to see in training camp if this development year has affected him in any way.

Time to Retool... again...
Would be neat if Vaxjo could somehow grab Dahlen.
I have zero idea how this works with the SHL.

Isn't he wanting to stay, so he can get Timra to the promotion / relegation playoffs.
Timra's schedule ends around early March, then you have the playoffs and that ends mid to late March.
If Utica is in the mix, then he might get assigned there at the end of March

He has an out clause that allows him to sign in the SHL or come to North America. It expires January 31st.

Formally 'OEL for Norris'
Rick Dahliwal just twitted that Dahlen will play the next 4 games with Timra, and then will decided on where he'll play the rest of the season.

Hopefully he comes over or at least moves to the SHL. I don’t know if staying in a second tier league that he is too good for is the best thing for his development.
I'm pretty sure he openly stated that that was the reason he wanted to start the season in a lower level. It wasn't a bad idea, but if he decides to stay there now I can't see a scenario where that could be deemed a positive.
One positive could be ice time and playing in situations he might not get if he moved up a level. If it was up to me he'd return to NA with Utica and see some NHL games down the stretch. But I don't think it writes off his season developmentally if he stays where he is.
I think he would get that ice time in Shl. I think positives is that he is the guy in Timra and his ppg is improving in a tight league without Petterson. It is not a lot different than Boeser playing last year at North Dakota or Gaudette playing this year at college. Just because they are the best players does not mean they cannot improve there. This league is an adult pro league it is not that he is staying in high school. That said would like him go to Utica and be possible call up this year.
