Give 1 other game he played horrible.
He's had bad shifts and plays but not complete horrible games like last night.

first let me say I love the Sabres and hope Dahlin gets better, but really he gets walked as much as "Rick" the dog does...

San Jose----
The only reason his +/- is not worse is he is always out there and we are scoring more goals this year... IMO |

the reason why i brought up getting burned wide by speed in his own zone is i think he's starting to learn how to counter his deficiencies on defense - Michael Pachla
After the 2 games in a row he got burned earlier in the year he was out on the ice before or after everyone working on his 1v1's. He cares.
But he also wears his emotions on his shoulder and lets plays get to him during games. It happened last night. Something he needs to work on.

I cannot speak for anyone else, but I am focusing on Darlene simply because it's the blog topic. - lacaprup
i think we figured that out as it justifies you wanting to trade him two years ago for malkin...it adds to your narrative...
good for you |

He's never lived up to the expectations. And I don't think he ever will if playing for the Sabres. He's been ruined...and the only remedy is trading him, where he'll flourish. But I guess I'd rather put up with him here then to see him succeed elsewhere, UNLESS you get 5 premium pieces ! (shoutout to Garth).
So if the trade package is great, I'm ready to move on from him - don't care how young he is. He will never succeed here as his mind is fukt and this is hockey purgatory.

Yeah not like he is top 15 in scoring or anything
He's horrible on defense but only a -4
Trading him would be travesty at this point.
Then were looking at Power at #1 his first year here and that would mean A LOT of mistakes.... or even better Colin Miller? Who is worse at the offense and not much better at the defense. |

Time does always prove me correct, just as with Derek Roy +.
Don't look at my thoughts on this team making a playoff run. |

He plays Defense... He should prob be good at that part of the game. yes he does help the offense but at the end of the day if he is a minus player every year he is not helping the team.
look I like Dahlin, I want him to be a better D-man, but right now he is pretty bad..
IMO the best dman on this team right now has been Mark Pysyk. he is steady makes the right plays and does not try to do too much with the puck. I wish Dahlin would do that more.

Obviously Dahlin is a big work in progress, go and get him a good Defensive partner and let him play his game and as time goes hopefully he learns and improves his D game. |

And for God's sake if Samuelsson is ready and in game shape bring him up to replace Hagg. |

It took me until year 5 to have the disdain for Risto people have had for a much better player in Dahlin in years 2-4 - sbroads24

It doesn't have to be a whole bad game, sh!t it could happen in a 2 min window and that's bad enough. |

Your right the defensive d-man has been the best D-MAN.
But the game has moved towards having a 4th forward and he is that.
Karlsson still sucks at defense.

So your team is down already but it doesn't matter, you are already in a hole cause of a defensive liability. |
