He took off his silver medal and held it after Sweden lost in Buffalo this past year. Yup, I like him even more. Taking it off is fine, tossing it in the stands like Lias Andersson is not. Dahlin certainly is competitive though and Buffalo desperately needs that. Edited May 2, 2018 by Skurk Liger Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dahlin certainly is competitive though and Buffalo desperately needs that. I'm sure he's crushed. He never was going to play another WJC game.

WildCard Posted May 2, 2018 Report Share Posted May 2, 2018 Looks even more absurd for Andersson. It's not even like it was badass, he's crying the entire time Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LGR4GM Posted May 2, 2018 Report Share Posted May 2, 2018 At 2:03 of the video I see Dahlin and his medal is still on so whatever. Not like he will ever been in that tourney again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Doohickie Posted May 2, 2018 Report Share Posted May 2, 2018 Eichel never ever gets mentioned And that's okay. The only thing that matters is winning. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Derrico Posted May 2, 2018 Report Share Posted May 2, 2018 Dahlin's head coach says his favorite trait is his personality. Kid hates to loose and is ultra competitive. Tries to win every battle and win everything he can. Also a good student of the game and listens and learns quickly. Hosts asked coach if he tells Rasmus to take it easy in practice but he doesn't listen. Coach replied with 'everyday.' Not just the immense physical gifts, sounds like the kid is a winner and constant student of the game. We need that attitude in spades to enter the organization.

Not just the immense physical gifts, sounds like the kid is a winner and constant student of the game. We need that attitude in spades to enter the organization. one of the more notable things on his highlight reel is how PISSED he was when, on one play, he'd made 3 spectacular moves, but then could not finish with a goal. he slammed his stick into the boards, angrily jumped into the bench area, took a seat and put his head down in a rage.

That Aud Smell Posted May 2, 2018 Report Share Posted May 2, 2018 Can't tell if that's a good thing or a bad thing honestly. could go either way, i guess. if it can be properly harnessed, it will be a rare gift. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LikeEich Posted May 2, 2018 Report Share Posted May 2, 2018 (edited) could go either way, i guess. if it can be properly harnessed, it will be a rare gift. Totally agree. IMO its usually a good sign when he has fits over HIS play and not his team's. Means the kid knows he can be better and will probably put his nose to the grindstone until he does so. Edit: never content with his own play, even though it was still a highlight reel. Always striving to be better. No doubt in my mind he harness' it like you say.

Huckleberry Posted May 3, 2018 Report Share Posted May 3, 2018 Can't tell if that's a good thing or a bad thing honestly. You know when me and brother were younger, we were pretty good in football. ( we also played 3 games each weekend with age groups untill 4 years older) But we got very angry, crying when we lost, we would walk up our home stairs 40 times and vent it all out. I have no issues with Eichel or Dhalin getting pissed off like that little kid I was when losing, I want that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can you get mad and do something about it or are you going to pout like Jack? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Derrico Posted May 3, 2018 Report Share Posted May 3, 2018 So this maybe a bit creepy but I found the footage from a game Dahlin played in where he scored the 36 points in 5 games. It really did happen. Sure he's only 14 or 15 but looked amazing there. PS you have to be really board to watch this lol. He's #3 in white. http://sports.livearena.com/Content/Index/34624 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Could you find a dangling Nathan Beaulieu scoring five goals in some game when he was 14? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Could you find a dangling Nathan Beaulieu scoring five goals in some game when he was 14? I'm sure you could, but scoring 7 points per game for a (small) stretch against your peers is still incredible. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
