Player Discussion Rasmus Dahlin Part 2- D (1st Overall, 2018, Frölunda HC, SHL)

[sabremike]

I'd be surprised if Iddiotte had 31 thoughts in his life.

Our fans murdering him on Twitter is beautiful!

The analytics evidence and the eye-test commentary, combined with the Orr benchmarks.

That said, it'll be like Mirtle or PuckDaddy where they will forever have a panty-twist when anything Sabre comes up in the future.

You forgot Manny, who shits on the Sabres mercilessly.

Manny sucks

He turns 19 on Saturday. Unreal.

Happy birthday, Rasmus. Now hit the squat rack!

 

[La Cosa Nostra]

By his 3rd year he will be the best dman in the league. Literally did something no other dman has done in over 35 years. By the time he turns 20 he will be a 75 point 25 min a game dman. Dahlin gets zero f***ing respect, the only player with more trade value is McDavid. I wouldn't trade Dahlin for anyone else 1 for 1.

 

[Kyndig]

In just one day I've now heard.

Matthews > Eichel because Eichel plays more minutes.

Heiskanen> Dahlin because Heiskanen plays more minutes.

Talk about twisting things to fit a narrative. Then there's the "my team made the playoffs=better player." McDavid must be a tier below Matthews too now.

You have to do some serious mental gymnastics to give Heiskanen the nod over Dahlin.

 

[enthusiast]

It's an effort to try to be ahead of the curve in case Heiskanen turns out better than Dahlin. If it happens, he's a genius. If it doesn't, nobody remembers the take

 

[Aladyyn]

Remember when we thought Risto was better than Jones because of their minutes? Good times.

Remember when we thought Risto was better than Jones because of their minutes? Good times.

And yet, what did we say then? That on a better team, Risto would likely have better results. Jones has had the benefit of playing on better teams every year. There is an impact to that.

 

[Buffaloed]

Dahlin won't have Houley sabotaging him any more to protect his fake records.

Remember when some thought Ekblad was generational lol

Swedish coach hasnt asked dahlin for whc

Instead he took robert hagg and adam larsson.

 

[Gabrielor]

Dahlin might've said no to WC.

I know Botts sounded like he wanted Mitts and Dahlin to rest and heal after 82 games.

Nope he said to swedish media today he wants to play.

Easy way for people to stop speculating on Gronberg here would be to take Hagg over Dahlin.

Gronborg is a bad coach. Who wants him?

It would indeed be very Grönborg. As soon as you give him options he starts to **** up.
You can’t give him a full roster.

Some of the Buffalo press have gone from "Sabres have a lot of Swedes" to "Sabres should hire a Swede" and rather than looking a little deeper have settled on the first one they've found. I'm still more interested in someone like Rönnberg from Frölunda for his work as HC there and his time as the U20 coach. I've been around HF long enough to have watched the Grönborg fallout repeatedly.

Yes rönnberg >>> grönborg

 

[MrMaster]

Can't wait for his playoff appearances. Can you imagine him being cool as a cucumber in his own zone, while flashing in the o-zone, no matter what pressure comes at him?
The Sabres need to make the playoffs soon, i can only imagine him thriving in such an environment.
Maybe not as of yet, cause of his strength and speed issues, but once that is taken care of, oh boy

 

[Kyndig]

Cleaaarly Gronborg wants Dahlin to rest for next season since he will be the coach here. Seriously though if he chose not to take Dahlin hes going on my instant no thanks list along with McLellan.

 

[dortt]

As I said before, the hockey world outside of Buffalo sees that Dahlin is not as good at this current time as many here think he is

Give him time. He will be an elite defenseman in a couple of years. Let's give him time. As I said next year, 55 points and improved 2 way play should be the goal. He doesn't need to be contending for a Norris for a few more years

Wow! We were all confused. You're the only Sabres fan that could see that Dahlin was garbage this season. If only we listened to the rest of the world...you know the people that probably didn't even watch him play 10 games.
