SDS Posted April 13, 2022 Report Share Posted April 13, 2022 This is his first year of having 10? I would not have thought that Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Curt Posted April 13, 2022 Report Share Posted April 13, 2022 Nice. He might get another one or two this season. How many do we think he nets next season? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
matter2003 Posted April 13, 2022 Report Share Posted April 13, 2022 That's pretty crazy...10 isn't that many 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zamboni Posted April 13, 2022 Report Share Posted April 13, 2022 Next season I’d be fine with 15G / 25A as a floor, as long as he’s solid in his own end. He’s looking very good most games. I hope he develops more over the summer. I don’t think we’ve seen Dahlin’s ceiling yet. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GASabresIUFAN Posted April 13, 2022 Report Share Posted April 13, 2022 (edited) Career hi in goals with 10 (9 his rookie year) and tied his career hi in assist (36). Hopefully he’ll bust through 50 points this season. Last Sabres D to get to 50 was…….. Not Myers. He topped out at 48 his rookie year. No not Soupy either. He also topped out at 48 with the Sabres. Also not getting there were Risto (45), Wooley (43), Zhitnik (45), Leopold (35) or Teppo (36). No the winner is Gary Galley in 1995-96 with 54 (10g 44a). Leopold’s 13g in 2010-11 is the recent high there. Edited April 13, 2022 by GASabresIUFAN 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That will be close to where he finishes this season. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree with Curt. Dahlin has 1 season below 35 assists and that was the kruger season from hell last year. 12g and 40a seems like a solid floor if he plays around 78+ games Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Leopold had 13 the next season. Ultimately one of Power or Dahlin will break 13 goal barrier. I wonder which rookie defender, Samuelsson, Power or Fitz, will be the first to get his first NHL goal.

GASabresIUFAN Posted April 13, 2022 Report Share Posted April 13, 2022 FYI: Housley is the only Sabres D to ever score 20 or more. His Sabres career hi came in 1983-84 when he potted 31 goals as a 19 year old. He scored 20 or more 5 times. https://www.quanthockey.com/nhl/team-season-records/buffalo-sabres-defensemen-nhl-season-records.html If Dahlin gets to 50 points it will be the 17th best D scoring season by a Sabres D. 8 of the 16 were had by Housley. This list also points out how effective Van Boxmeer and Bodger were in their primes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carmel Corn Posted April 13, 2022 Report Share Posted April 13, 2022 (edited) As the team composition changes for the better with more talent and skill, I hope to see him be the next Sabre D to hit 20. He'll have more goal scorers to feed (for assists) and more playmakers to find him when he comes in from the blue line to score goals. If he can have a steady D-partner (ex. maybe Mule?), he may become more aggressive in the offensive zone.

I still think he brings in a burly vet to pair with Power. that could drop Joker to bottom pair with the Byrson Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For all we know, Owen may become that. Lots of college kids come in and start punching people. See John Hayden. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doohickie Posted April 13, 2022 Report Share Posted April 13, 2022 Can't talk about Leopold without posting this goal. As I recall, this goal was meaningful in that it kept the Sabres in the playoff race a little longer before they eventually dropped out. Perhaps the last time the Sabres were relevant with respect to the playoffs. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And they were pretty damned good against one of the most potent NHL offenses. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
