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

[Frankie Blueberries]

Hopefully the Canucks miss out on Dahlin. The Flames would be doomed having to play against 2 generational players as their main rivals.

I wouldn't worry about it. We've never received a 1st overall pick and the odds are terrible with the new format.

One can only hope.

 

[Iceman]

He’d say the same thing about Edmonton, Buffalo, Ottawa, Arizona etc...

 

[Billy Kvcmu]

This is just a new way of media torturing its own fan base

 

[Smeagoal]

He's got a greater chance of winning a cup in Detroit, Before his career is over then Vancouver. How many cups has Vancouver won compared to Detroit again.

EDM has the best chance to win a cup in that trash heap that is the bottom of the NHL standings based solely on their potential picks from previous drafts reaching their potential (sans McDavid).

VAN/DET = two similar substances in the toilet.

How does Rasmus feel about playing in Arizona?

Literally the same thing. “They’ve got Swedes. It’d be sick! “
Ottawa? Same exact thing.
Buffalo? “Wow, Jacob Eichel!”
Edmonton? “Wow, McDavid!”
Detroit? “Lidstrom and Zetterberg!”
Montreal? “Original Six!”

 

[Canovin]

I bet he’d hate playing with and learning from OEL and Hjalmarsson...

I don't think Dahlin wants babysit OEL

 

[justafan22]

Some team from 6 and below is going jump up, I think.

 

[Billy Kvcmu]

If Chicago or Edmonton wins the lottery, I will flip. The teams who actually deserve it are the bottom 4. Buffalo got screwed a few times, especially with McDavid (even though EichDaddy is a great consolation prize). Arizona has had one top 3 pick in a long time even though they've been really bad for years. Ottawa has been tormented by terrifyingly horrendous ownership and hasn't had a top 5 pick since Spezza in '02. And finally Vancouver has had horrible lottery luck, consistently getting bumped. I hope one of those teams win it for the sake of their fans. The oilers have had countless top picks and are still garbage, while the hawks have 3 cups since 2010.

All that said, it's just a few ping pong balls so Edmonton is probably gonna win again.

i dont think Arizona deserves it at all
No one cares about hockey over there

 

[CanuckGame39]

Lol at the amount of salt in this thread. I really hope this happens so I can come bask in the glory on HF all summer long.

 

[CanuckGame39]

The Sabres have never won the lottery, it's our time. Rasmus Ristolainen and Rasmus Dahlin, dogs and cats, Swedes and Finns, living together.

Let's see what the lottery simulator says .............. Detroit.

Yeah cry me a river pal.

 

[Elias Pettersson]

And here i thought Vancouver was a place where careers go to die, If Dahlin wants to win a cup in his future. It surely isn't happening in Vancouver.

lol Pettersson is worth more than the entire Red Wings trash prospect pool combined.

 

[Tryamkin]

He's got a greater chance of winning a cup in Detroit, Before his career is over then Vancouver. How many cups has Vancouver won compared to Detroit again.

What does that have to do with anything to do with the next 15 years? Canucks have a great base of prospects and young players to build off of.

 

[CallMeShaft]

People, people, people. I'm sure he'd be happy in Vancouver. It's a lovely city with some decent prospects in the pipeline. I'm sure he'd be happy in Detroit too. Original 6 franchise. And I hate to say it as a Hawks fan, but the Wings have some very nice jerseys too.

We should stop bickering about which of those franchises deserves to draft Dahlin and start accepting the fact that he'll be in a Hawks sweater this time next year.

 

[Rasmus CacOlainen]

Buffalo pls. Dont care if hes happy or not with that

 

[DanCloutiers5hole]

This threads embarrassing why would op even post this . All this is doing is getting our fan base ripped even more than usual. Junk like this is why we are hated ...He was interviewing on a Vancouver station of course he's gonna say he'd like to play here !?! This is not news

If it makes you feel any better, every fanbase here has their fair share of embarrassing/cringe-worthy posters.

 

[EichHart]

Sabres or Canucks please. Expansion cousins. 1-2 picks

 

[BigDoaner]

I don't think Dahlin wants babysit OEL

Oh, how so?

 

[Unfriendly Ghost]

lol Pettersson is worth more than the entire Red Wings trash prospect pool combined.

Who's going to disagree with that? That's not an insult, that's a statement of fact.

 

[ConnorMcMullet]

Dahlin's response upon being asked about what it would be like playing in Edmonton.

"It would be awesome to play with Jack Hughes and Alexis Lafreniere in a couple years."

 

[Tomas W]

Wow.
Dahlin must be a saint for choosing to live in Detroit.

If he had his way He'd probably want any California or Florida team.

As far as I know, the Detroit players doesnt really live in some worn down condos in Detroit, but rather in wealthy suburbs, and the Wings got a shiny new and luxurious arena. You got to be pretty spoiled to snub at that.

 

[Abraham de Lacy]

One assist so far (Second assist) in the game against Malmö.

Personal opinion: shakey.

 

[Abraham de Lacy]

Rasmus Dahlin with a goal in the third.

 

[Abraham de Lacy]

Might be the game winning goal .. fantastic.
