I've never seen a player play like him. He's so good in so many ways and he makes plays that literally no other player in the league makes. What a phenomenal year to win the lottery.

So the next Drew Doughty. Sabres fans should be pretty happy about that.

Though on these boards people will tell you he is overrated, Doughty has been called that, he didn't deserve the Norris, he was awarded for years of service, its the Kings system, blah blah blah.

Lots of ignorance out there, he looked good last night, the one goal he probably did not play it well, but it happens to the best of them.
Not too mention Doughty when he was playing had an arguably worse GA when Girgs pickpockets him considering Doughty already had the puck on his stick.

Anyone who says either one is "miles ahead" of the other clearly hasn't watched both players.
people who keep arguing about it are just as bad as the ones that keep putting down one or the other player. Prospect threads should really just stick to what the prospect is doing rather than having an argument.

Well I'm sure if Botts offered Dahlin for Heiskanen Nill would jump all over that in a heartbeat

This Heiskanen vs Dahlin stuff is going to end up exactly like the Sabres fans who were certain Reinhart was making Eichel better and not the other way around. Hilarious.

Heiskanen wasn't traded for Karlsson. I don't see why he would be traded for Dahlin either, especially now when he has shown what kind of player he can become in the NHL.

Also, it's nice to see so many Sabres fans has found the time to watch Dallas games regularly so they can have that opinion of Heiskanen only being better in so called fantasy land. :laugh:

Heiskanen wasn't traded for Karlsson because you'd only get 1 year of Karlsson. Want to know who Vegas refused to trade for Karlsson? Erik Brännström(also Cody Glass).

I have no idea why the comparisons to Heiskanen are brought up at all. Started with the Heiskanen camp wanting to validate their player by trying to bring down another player in the process I guess.

I'd also bet on both camps not watching much of either team... Because why would they?

This is so f***ing frustrating. Kid is the best 18 year old hockey player on the planet and the entire thread is being dominated by insecure Dallas fans whining. about their guy. Maybe Sabres fans should flood the Heiskanen thread just to shit on him for 20 pages?

Considering how the player-who-shall-not-be-named-here has looked so far in NHL, I think there were more reasons why he wasn't traded for Karlsson and Jim Nill saw that.

If you weren't here in the summer, this all started when one camp believed Heiskanen was just as good as Dahlin and the other camp responded saying he wasn't even in the same tier than Dahlin. So here we are.

Don't want people to say they like Dahlin better? Maybe don't go into a thread created to talk specifically about Dahlin and start shit by telling everyone Heiskanen is better? Seriously, this is like going to a Comicon with a sign saying "Comics are stupid, romance novels are better" and then complaining that you get a negative reception. What did you expect? Why did you go to a place filled with enthusiasts to try and spread your message that you knew would be received negatively by that group? What are you trying to prove?

Like this is some severe victim blaming shit. The Heiskanen thing is because people in a Dahlin thread think Dahlin is better? If you don't bring up Heiskanen in the Dahlin thread in the first place nobody even comments on which tier the two are in, relative to each other. This is 100% the fault of people who decided to invade the Dahlin thread with Heiskanen talk. If Dahlin fans are to blame by saying Dahlin is in a different tier the why isn't every thread which is supposed to be solely about Heiskanen filled with comments about Dahlin? Oh right, it's because we talk about Dahlin in the Dahlin threads.

I'm just fine with people saying whatever they say about Dahlin or Heiskanen, as long as they are fine with my opinion. Everyone is entitled to their opinion after all.

And I get it that prospect threads are not the place for these discussions but people should also remember that it always takes two to tango.

If you honestly don't think Nill would trade Heiskanen(along with some other pieces) for a fully signed Karlsson, then yeah... Good luck with that.

No you clearly don't know this is not the place because you keep going, and no, it doesn't "take two to tango". This is clear when you look at the Heiskanen prospect thread compared to the Dahlin one. This is literally 100% one sided. I just checked the Heiskanen thread and the latest 5 pages only have any mention of Dahlin by Dallas/Heiskanen fans and only to say Heiskanen is better. This is literally 100% one sided.

Spread your opinion all you'd like, in the Heiskanen thread where it belongs.

Look back 4 months more and you'll see where it all the started. There are bunch of Dahlin discussion in the Heiskanen thread from people who couldn't believe their eyes that Heiskanen would be just as good as Dahlin. Maybe not recently as much as there used to be but you are definately wrong with this debate being 100% one sided.

Now let's do everyone a favor leave this who started and who keeps it going crap here. This is not kindergarten after all.

He’s clearly looking at Eichel. People do realize that eyes are able to move in the eye sockets. Head straight ahead, eyes looking left. Also had the quick left head turn at the end to fixate on target.
