‘Dahlin becomes the third No. 1 overall pick made by the Sabres since they came into the NHL, joining Gilbert Perreault in the club’s inaugural draft in 1970 and Pierre Turgeon in 1987. The 6-foot-2 defenseman from Frolunda of the Swedish Hockey League is expected to be an immediate contributor and the kind of defenseman who can instantly transform Housley’s attack-based system into one that allows the Sabres to move the puck much faster up the ice.’
