Denis Potvin on Rasmus Dahlin: 'Make sure the young man plays defense first'

Source: Buffalo News

‘”I had every scoring record in junior hockey and I got to my first training camp and I don’t think I was barely allowed to go above center ice for the first little while. Al Arbour simply saw it that, ‘Let’s make sure being a sound defensive defenseman comes first and if you’re in a good position defensively, you’ll be in a good position offensively.’ He used to drill that into me. Coaching will be important. You can’t just let the kid ride because he’ll make mistakes that I think will be difficult to recover from.”‘
