It's that Eichel will be that good.
Just needs the linemates to finish the chances he creates every game. Maybe he's found that with Skinner. How many times the past few years would Eich make a pass like he did to spring the 2 on 1, only for the teammates to bungle it?
I mean ok, but that isn’t a reason.
They will both have the same teammates. Dahlin was drafted higher and has equal if not more scouting love. And to start their careers, Dahlin has been flat out better.
Time will tell, but Dahlin looks incredible to me, all the time, in a way Jack does more infrequently. His vision to kill attacks is very impressive and his decision making to act on his eyes is crazy good for his age. His passing is excellent. He already has shown the hands a few times without putting the team in jeopardy regularly.
And a smaller thing, but Jack was far more nhl ready, body wise than Dahlin. I think Rasmus still has 20 lbs to go, comfortably, and his game takes an exponential jump.
Awesome to have both.
