Radar Posted November 6, 2021 Report Share Posted November 6, 2021 I'm rea!ly beginning to question how Dalin was touted so much. Seriously, he seems average at best. Maybe dazzingly average but average nevertheless. But 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nitro60 Posted November 6, 2021 Report Share Posted November 6, 2021 How can you be a professional hockey player and NOT be mentally in the game for several games in a row? Early in the season no less. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pimlach Posted November 6, 2021 Report Share Posted November 6, 2021 Dahlin is playing with a linemate that has an AHL talent level. When he looks at the forwards about half of them are not NHL players either. Fix these two things and Dahlin will all of a sudden be a lot better. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That 's all well and good, but how can we explain his unforced errors that require no help from his lesser teammates? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Perhaps, but isn't Dahlin supposed to be good enough to elevate the play of his linemates? Jack could make things happen all by himself without much other talent on the ice with him. Whatever happened to "shoot the puck"?!?! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jack could make things happen all by himself without much other talent on the ice with him. Jack is better than Dahlin. With Jack gone Dahlin is the top talent for now. He is not playing like it right now. Give him time and give him a better cast. The NHL is loaded with great defensemen that had periods of ineffective play in their early years. He is still learning, all by himself with no mentor as a line mate, … he is going to mature and get better someday.
