  1. It's very early for this discussion.

    The factor I'm leary about is disrupting the chemistry that is developing in this dressing room. Every year there are deadline deals  that improved the team on paper but fizzled out during the actual playoffs. They need to keep their eyes open for deals but not seek them out for a win at all cost playoff.

    At the start of the season I thought we would be thrilled if he put up 25-30 pts much like Hedman and Karlsson did their 1st years.  However, Dahlin hit 10 pts today in just 20 games and it has seemed almost effortless.  His vision and smart plays lead to both points tonight.  He is just such a pleasure to watch.  So with 10 pts in 20 games, Dahlin is on a 40 pt pace.  

    The Dahlin/Petterson ROY race is heating up.

    He has not garnered the attention yet, but a few more games like this and it may get mentioned. The stats are ramping up for Dahlin and the highlight reel as well.

    Dahlin plays a tougher position, is a year younger and has a physical side to his game. I am biased, but he gets my vote if he builds on this last game.

  3. Wow, huge confidence builder.

    I was at an OHL game, thus missed this one. UPL had an easy win for Sudbury, looks good.

    An earlier comment about checking the standings caught my attention because I am doing that a lot now. They are a playoff contender.

    In the past few years, I would already be looking at and anxiously awaiting new draft lists. What a difference.

    Let's go Buffalo!

  4. The team is in the playoff discussion. I hope he has individual success, but the team comes first. He is a big part of it and has assumed a leadership role he will improve on every game.

    I don't want him winning the Art Ross while the team misses the playoffs. Not dismissing McDavid's accomplishments, but most of them prefer team championships.

    He probably is not elite but darn close. Dahlin's growth will also bring out more from Jack.
