JP represented a very high pick they couldnt afford to give up. Dahlen was just an okay prospect not really blowing any one away in the AHL. Patience paid off for San Jose but I’m not gonna lose sleep over it considering we easily replaced him with Hoglander.

Is Höglander really a replacement of Dahlen though? Nils has 3 assists in 9 games and a 0.5 ppg player last season. Dahlen has 6 pts in 8 games with 4 being goals. If anything Höglander is more of a Top 9 forward while Dahlen is a top 6 forward with a bigger upside when it comes to scoring goals Edited November 3, 2021 by iinatcc 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hoglander is 3 years younger then Dahlen? Dahlen is getting an opportunity in San Jose because of lack of depth. Could be at least 2-3 years before this is even an argument 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Let me know after 82 games whether he’s a top 6 forward. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's already stories about Benning not communicating well with players especially in these kinds of talks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's no harm to have both Dahlen / Hoglander so that false arguments breaks down right there. Lost this trade pretty badly, accept it lol. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And considering we've allowed other players to return to Europe after playing in NA, it really doesn't seem like Dahlen gave us the option. Which is why it's pointless to keep bumping this stupid thread. If ya'll want to keep annoying people here with constant reminders of "the one that got away" it would make far more sense to go bump the McCann of Forsling threads.

Popular Post 48MPHSlapShot Posted November 3, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted November 3, 2021 It's somewhat amusing how folk will cite Dahlen as an example of patience paying off while simultaneously writing off Karlsson completely. 1 3 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, Benning said that Dahlens agent said so. A lot of people say that someone said something but Dahlen said ge didn’t wanted a trade. He wanted a change… But since a lot of people here misundrrstand what I say it might be just a misunderstanding from a GM that isn’t exactly an intelligent GM. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
