Tystick Posted February 25, 2019 Share Posted February 25, 2019 "Good size and goal scoring ability. Has fine hands and overall offensive skills. Very good hockey sense and great character. (EP 2018)" Everything Benning is looking for. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HerrDrFunk Posted February 25, 2019 Share Posted February 25, 2019 Wow, Benning. Way to flush away the good will from the Gudbranson trade in 15 minutes. Dahlen was just starting to bring it together. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yung1 Posted February 25, 2019 Share Posted February 25, 2019 Just now, Tystick said: Remember Swe-1 is the NHL of Sweden. Producing .35 PPG at 19. Benning's scouting is top notch so I trust him on this. Swe-1 is the AHL of Sweden. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But they didn't have a pick until the 5th because they traded their 4th to PIT for Pouliot. So basically, this trade is all Pouliot's fault once again. Guddy is gone, now all the hate is on Pouliot 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CanuckGAME Posted February 25, 2019 Share Posted February 25, 2019 I dont like this. Was excited for Dahlen. But I also didnt like JB trading Shinkaruk. I'm sure he has some legitimate reasons to make a move like this that the general public is unaware about. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

70seven Posted February 25, 2019 Share Posted February 25, 2019 I wanted to see Pettersson and Dahlen... just a few times to see if their chemistry could translate. Must be more to this story. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm just gonna have to trust Jimbo with this one since he's proven me wrong countless times before. Dahlen was looking pretty decent in Utica and has obvious chemistry with Petey. A bit worried how EP will take this news. Karlsson looks like a decent player in the SHL this year, 17 points in 48 games in his draft+1 year. EDIT: The more I think about it, the more this could be a good deal for us. Dahlen played in Sweden's 2nd league for two years after being drafted whereas Karlsson is already in the SHL immediately after being drafted, which shows a faster progression. I've already changed my mind, I like this deal now. JB savaged the Comets today.......dahlen gone and either Schenn or Sautner will likely be staying for the rest of the year. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frail Granny Posted February 25, 2019 Share Posted February 25, 2019 Centre depth is not the current problem with this team. I don't care if Karlsson can play a plumber role on a wing one day. Dahlen had WAY more upside. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nucker 67 Posted February 25, 2019 Share Posted February 25, 2019 They didn't even give Dahlen/Pettersson a chance, hmmm. Hope Linus is better then. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EP Phone Home Posted February 25, 2019 Share Posted February 25, 2019 This is such a sad day... why? Why not even let him play with EP at least to see what you have. Again I’ll say it once more. We have to take a real HARD LOOK at how we develop our prospects in Utica because this stinks of mismanagement and JD got culled Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
