There goes that for Utica... He can choose to go back to Sweden or play in Utica. Chances are, he will stay and develop his game in the NA sized rink.

*Buzzsaw* Posted April 21, 2017 Share Posted April 21, 2017 This is good to see the Canucks lock up this guy... but if they can offer this completely untried kid 3 years, why was Tryamkin not offered a 3 year deal????????? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If say Goldobin gets sent down to start and we have Hischier or Necas starting down there and can maybe sign Zhukenov too.... things start to look a lot rosier in Utica and you keep yourself in North America, learning on N.A. ice and available for call ups. Dahlen, Hischier/Necas, Goldobin Virtanen, Zhukenov, Valk MacEwan, Cassels, Jasek ...plus all the D arriving, another year older Subban and Demko. That's be a pretty stacked team.

He's already shown he can play well at the NHL level Brock may have looked good for 9 games, but 82 season is a whole another beast coming at him. He will benefit from a year in the AHL to start off and if he gets hot call him up. Virtanen and McCann earned their first 9 games with us, but after that they drifted off completely and showed they needed to be returned to junior. We made this mistake to rush them, no need to rush Brock. I think a season in the AHL with other highly touted prospects will create a competitive drive, and also give him a chance to learn the pro game. Dahlen, Virtanen, Boeser, Brisebois, Subban, Demko and co all growing together reminds me of the old Manitoba Moose days where the core of Bieksa, Burrows, Kesler, grew together to form a strong core for the Nucks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ELC limits on his initial contract for that one. You don't not sign a 3 year ELC if you can. Try wanted to go home to his wife/family. I really don't think the contract was the issue.

Ossi Vaananen Posted April 21, 2017 Share Posted April 21, 2017 The Euro out-clause is interesting. Sweden starts a bit earlier in the summer, and their season will be underway by the time the Canucks start training camp. I'm guessing the Canucks are gambling that he doesn't want to return mid-season, and would thus be willing to go to Utica. Maybe he blows everyone away out of camp and stays. Giving him a euro-out clause is either a gamble or confidence that he will stick around. Anyways, add another name to our roster of musical chairs: Baertschi - Horvat - _____ Sedin - Sedin - Granlund Eriksson - Sutter - ______ ______ - _______ - Dorsett (Megna, Boeser, Goldobin, Gaunce, Boucher, Dahlen, Virtanen) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gaudette Celly Posted April 21, 2017 Share Posted April 21, 2017 43 minutes ago, HKSR said: Great to hear of the signing! But I caution based on what I've seen of him that Dahlen likely has a peak potential of becoming a 2nd line winger. I don't see Top Line out of him. He loves to bring the puck to the front of the net coming from down low along the side boards. This works fine with younger players, but I think he might find this move difficult to pull off against the big defencemen of the NHL. He's also not exactly a swift skater either (although neither was Horvat). However, I'd say he has good acceleration. Those first few strides gets him around players pretty quickly. What he does have is a great shot. Whether it's a slap shot, snap shot, or wrist shot, the release is quick, and it definitely looks like a heavy shot considering how many goalies simply 'get a piece' of the shot, but not all of it. He also seems to have a knack of scoring goals in tight against the net. Overall, he definitely has high hockey IQ with a real ability to score goals. I'm hoping if he works hard on his skating and builds some more strength that he'll be a main stay on the 2nd line. Time will tell. Either way, I'm very happy we have him signed If Dahlen turns out to be another Baertschi, that's a clear win. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, I'm not sure why a solid 2nd line Winger is being construed as a bad thing...? I think he's got even more upside than that (decent, complimentary 1st line W) but I'm not going to complain a bit if he's 'only' a 2nd liner in his prime.
