Another season would do him good. Imports from Sweden tends to do better after getting a taste of the SHL which he hopefully will have next year. Don't want another Rodin situation on our hand. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nice Finnish Posted February 27, 2017 Share Posted February 27, 2017 Dahlen would go in first round pick if drafted this year. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He didn't last very long in the second round. Honestly, I would've taken him with a late 1st had we had one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Warhippy Posted February 27, 2017 Popular Post Share Posted February 27, 2017 You need to see the master plan. We have him. Will draft his line mate Petterson this year. Next year will draft Dahlen 1st or 2nd in 2018 overall to ensure the team has two swedes with the same (ish) name for the next 18 years.

It's better to not rush skilled guys. Fillip Forsberg went to the AHL in his draft +2 after putting similar numbers to Dahlen. Although Forsberg had more size to make that transition easier. I guess the question is whether transitioning to the AHL is easier now for smaller guys compared to when Rodin tried to enter. Sidenote: if we was 2 weeks younger he would be eligible for the World Juniors again. Edited February 27, 2017 by HomeBrew 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I must confess I have only seen streamed games of Dahlen plus highlights last year. He must've improved a lot huh? I remember being most concerned about whether his elusivity and core strength will translate. I'm guessing that has improved? Can you tell me more about it? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When will he transition to North America? Considering how deep last years draft was, this is pretty awesome. Sounds like he could project out as a future #1 or #2 center in the league. Looking forward to seeing him in camp next year! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Every centre, especially the ones who are early in their developmental stage can easily convert to the wing. We aren't talking about a Goalie switching to LW here. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If skating and a few pounds is the hurdle to get him through the AHL and up here, thats great imo. Easy things to overcome. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Remember watching Jonathan Dahlen at the WJC after they mentoned he was Ulf's son, He was impressive! Ya i wasnt expecting much for burrows. This was a pretty good risk imo. We shall see. May not work out , but either way i applaud jim for getting a kid with this skill set for burrows. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
