BUFFALO, N.Y. (AP) — As much as he enjoyed his season with the Sabres, forward Jeff Skinner isn't going to rush into deciding whether to re-sign with Buffalo or pursue free agency following a career-best 40-goal yea

oh my

That is true but I think mcDavid and Dahlin cancel each other out in this category

Would you trade Dahlin for McDavid

no, only due to it being a cap era and mcdavid's 2 injuries

Nope.

Would Det have traded Lidstrom for McDavid? Nope.
Boston, Bourque? Nope.
Islanders, Potvin? Nope.



Is it premature to compare Dahlin to these hall of famers? Yes. But if he continues where he started off and goes where all the experts think he will, this will be the best defenseman to ever play for Buffalo by a mile, and in the top 3-4 Sabres ever.

Since this tweet it’s gone completely the other way haha.

“Prefers grit over actual skill in the bottom six”

“Bad with matchups”

“Failed to adapt to the changing NHL”

“Underachiever”


“He sticks to the system and doesn’t seem to understand or recognize when the system isn’t working.” his answer to everything is a “heavier game”...expect middlestadt to get shunted around the lineup.”

You need to tap the brakes on your Dahlin Lovefest. He shows flashes, but not much finish. He was supposed to be a generational D-Man. I think he is good, but not seeing enough from him to back it. McDeeeeeeeeeez nuts came into the league and instantly became a 100 point player. Spare me the generational as good as McD rhetoric. Dahlin's points weren't even as good as Myers. Please. Stop wasting the 3ER's time with this nonsense.

Why does everything have to be a pissing match on here?

You have your opinion.

He has his.

Why are you always so negative? Ffs.

Babcock commands respect he doesn’t give a (frank) who you’re aka Matthews

And ruff was The best coach we ever had and he hasn’t had much success since leaving and we haven’t had much Success since he got fired

McLellan great he has a winning record from a stacked sharks team that didn’t win poop ( let’s all be honest here they should have a cup )


Sucked with the oilers Besides 1 year and couldn’t figure it out with the best player in the game

Please someone give me his stats for the PK I’m sure it’s one of the worst

Solid post
I don’t think there’s a GREAT candidate out there

Grönborg might actually be the best coach-
but i wonder if he’d be the “RIGHT” coach for us at this moment

Maybe we could get him as an Asst Coach,
and bring in someone like Vigneault, Martin, McLellan, etc etc as the experienced HC

No way! you got me. Great counter.

Yeah, man. It's crazy. You can use the internet to look things up, and find comparables that are accurate.

Here's a fun fact:

"Dahlin is having one of the best seasons for a rookie defenseman in NHL history as an 18-year-old. His 38 points in 72 games this season have him tied with Bobby Orr for the second-most points by a rookie defenseman, behind only his current coach Phil Housley."

Here's a fun look at how he compares to a Norris defenseman as an 18 year old.

No way! you got me. Great counter.

I guess recording more points then any 18 year old in the last 40+ seasons has no merit ? Hedman didn’t record 40+ till 3 seasons in. Karlsson was still on Sweden when he was 18 and in his age 19 season put up 25 points.

You’re more like the Black Plague then the 3ER.

Stop giving him a RAW DEAL
U should be “thanking him for his service”
😂😂😂

Why would Skinner want to resign with this sad sack organization that is run by Eichel? Who are they going to get to coach this team run by a over paid, 23 year old spoiled baby?

speaking of sad sacks.. I can't wait to watch your jets get T-bagged by the ROR and the Blues...

He had 48 points in 45 games or an 86 point pace.

So you might never be wrong, but ya ain’t right in this case
