When you are a fan of the game of hockey and you see someone like Dahlin play it gives you an immense feeling of satisfaction. He’s so skilled and has a high hockey iq and it seems like his mind, feet, and hands are all working together in unison at a very high speed. I dont watch many Sabres games so I didnt realize just how good he is but now I have an appreciation for what he brings, makes me want to go to a Sabres game next time theyre in town. Thanks for making this video, looking forward to the next one.
very well said, not sure where youre at, but as a buffalo fan who has watched this team be absolutely terrible for years, i can tell you that youll get your moneys worth seeing them now. its fast, fun, and improvised hockey. cheers!
Never gets old seeing Dahlin's movement at the point. He's almost certainly the best game driver at the blueline. He's got the shot, the vision, the discipline. And he's got the economy of movement. He doesn't move more than he has to. Doesn't overcommit. Adjusts and tweaks at the feet. It's fuckin mesmerizing.
He might be the best improviser and innovator of his generation, including the forwards. His processing speed is off the charts AND he's one of the toolsiest defensemen we've ever seen.
It’s his edge ability he uses them differently then the conventional defenseman. He has extreme patience combined with his edge work, it’s him and Makar that’s it. Id rather dahlin he has a physical game
Definitely not textbook defensively, but an incredible player. Even in this video that is supposed to showcase his skills you can see several times where he went for hits or stepped up when he wasn't supposed to if you're playing solid defense.
@@jyhina Admittedly at times he’s willing to take a risk on defense in order to try and create offense going the other way. When he’s in the zone though, the guy is so crafty at stripping pucks and taking players off the puck.
I know its a big name to compare him with. (and a forward at that) Dahlin got that Datsyuk effect at times. Not getting past the opponents by speed or power but by deception.
@@MaxSoininen He’s off to a bit of a rough start this season, but he seems to get better as the year goes on. That happens to a lot of guys who recently earned a new contract. Once he gets comfortable, he’ll be on autopilot. He should be the best Sabres defensemen in their history if he retires as one.
@@thepowerwithin9865 well, 5p in 5 games is not that bad. I see it as the entire team slacking off at the beginning of this season. Tuch and Thompson both have 1 point. We can start judging after 10 games.
You do the best videos I don't know how you channel hasn't blown up yet. The amount of effort you must put into to find these clips is unreal, thank you so much
A great compilation, but you left out THE play of the season, when Dahlin lofted a pass up to Dylan Cozens in overtime for the game-winning goal on the night Ryan Miller's #30 was retired!
You truly have a talent to tell a character story through your editing and the choice of your clips. The fact that you keep a wide variety of highlights and not just goals shows that you are invested in the player you're trying to show. I'm a new fan of your craft, and i'll be waiting for more videos. And don't worry, your channel will blow up sooner than later.
Just finding your channel - easily the best player highlight videos, bar none. Great job, keep them coming and I have no doubt this channel is going to blow up!
Wonderful video. And though us Sabres fans realize what we have in Rasmus Dahlin, many are not ready for what this kid is going to become when he matures into a man in the next year or so. This kid and the hard work he puts in and his tool belt. He’s going to be a legend. He’s still got a few gears left and it’s going to be wild for the whole NHL to bear witness.
Not a sabres fan but a Frölunda fan, we know it aswell. The way he sent grown men up to the stands for a hotdog almost once a game. He showed good defensive ability aswell. Just needed to learn when to take risks. That comes with age.
I agree. We haven’t seen him at the peak of his powers yet and if/when he gets there he will be challenging Makar for the Norris every year. He’s the total package in a way that no other NHL defeseman is. He has the skating and stickhandling of Makar, but he’s 6’3”, built like a truck and absolutely crushes guys. Once he puts all of his extraordinary gifts together into a complete package, the sky isn’t even the limit. Been a Dahlin fan since 2018-19 when he was an 18-year old rookie. His Norris year is coming.
Thank you for this, it was the most fun I had watching a "highlight reel" in some time. This was well-edited, the music was awesome, and even when the clip was of the Sabres losing big, Mr. Dahlin was still playing tough. Here along the Lake, we appreciate our number one draft pick, and now with the addition of Owen Power on defense and Devon Levi in net, we are looking to get a more positive goal differential to assist in propelling the team into the upcoming playoffs. I appreciate the time and effort you put into creating and posting, I would like to ask about your avatar, candy, or fungus?
I don't remember if i went to a Frölunda game in the time he was here but man, it was nice watching him twice a week..... ...but now i get to do it 3 times a week!
i really dont have much to say about dahlin that other commenters havent already said, he's nutty. but can we talk about this channel? you must be like a video coach or something, at least at a major junior level, to find all these little things that would never show up in any other channel's highlight reels, even the pro TV media, yet showcase individual players' styles and strengths so well! and I'm sure you could add plenty more insight with commentary, but you choose to tell the story with just some crisp editing and let the footage speak for itself... amazing definitely time to start a patreon, dude, and grow this thing into a community of people who really love the game
Insain best breakdown I’ve seen of him been watching since he was drafted and I’m so glad to see he was in the running for the Norris. Keep doing what your doing…
Briliant video! Keep going!!! The best hockey player videos on RUclips, no doubt. Could you please do video of Matthews/Petterson or Hughes/Fox from last season?:) that would be fantastic!
I absolutely love Dahlin. He is one of the smoothest, and most confident players out there. Sure he’s not the best defenceman in the league, but his overall positive impact, and sheer skill alone, are just so impressive. His ability to improvise and evade pressure like it’s nothing is unbelievable, I can’t think of many players that compare.
Rembrandt on skates over here, the man is truly an artist. the Russians call hockey "the beautiful game", and Rasmus Dahlin demonstrates that every night. we are lucky to have him here in Buffalo, and he is well-loved. Thanks for the post and guys, we are almost there! hockey season soon!!!
@@XaviRonaldo0 The thing ppl don't get is that it didn't take years for him to blossom. He was great from start. He is just European and wont get any attention.
This video is awesome! I don’t think people realize the hype for Dahlin in his draft year is holding up! He quietly is becoming what he was drafted to be. I think if it wasn’t for buffalos revolving door at head coach and for guys like Makar having unreal stats since day 1 Dahlin would be recognized
I mean he even set a point record for teen defensemen in his Rookie sesson. He was third in calder voting and the only two people in front of him were Binnigton who won the Stanley cup that year and Pettersson who had a pretty damn impressive rookie season.
It's a hard decision. The guy got his head down and breaks in on the net. You got to smash him so he doesn't think he can crash the net with his head down and at the same time you have to care for the goalie.
Not fan that he hit high with his back or hit the player towards his goaler, but on the offensive blue line he's very creative! I'll watch him this season fs

@@olympusvii I’m in NJ so I’m right there with you. Went from watching years of sub par hockey to one of the most skilled teams in the league.
Excellent comment!
Dahlin is the definition of smooth. Definitely a good example for hockey defensemen ........ thanx for collecting all the clips m8.
Never gets old seeing Dahlin's movement at the point. He's almost certainly the best game driver at the blueline. He's got the shot, the vision, the discipline. And he's got the economy of movement.

Yeah, it's amazing. He is one or two steps ahead of everyone. It's like he is playing against kids.
Adam Fox is a magician back there as well
So cool. The classical music describes his game perfectly. This is art.
He might be the best improviser and innovator of his generation, including the forwards. His processing speed is off the charts AND he's one of the toolsiest defensemen we've ever seen.
I mean Mcdavid and Jack Hughes exist but he’s up there
Yes
It’s his edge ability he uses them differently then the conventional defenseman. He has extreme patience combined with his edge work, it’s him and Makar that’s it. Id rather dahlin he has a physical game
@@michaeltennapel2182id rather the guy who can check McDavid and outscore him in a series
Cliche cliche annnnnd cliche!
Dude is textbook defensively in every aspect while being completely unorthodox in how he manages the blue line in the offensive zone. He’s special.

Great job with this video btw
He is the best thing that has happend to the league in a couple of years.
Lmao

You know, it's not often one gets to say this in life and have it be a positive, but it's definitely fungal.
The blue line edge work is a beauty. Reminds me of old Sid the kid
I don't remember if i went to a Frölunda game in the time he was here but man, it was nice watching him twice a week.....
...but now i get to do it 3 times a week!
Best Dahlin highlight video I’ve seen yet!

what a player, always one of my early picks every fantasy year.
How… how did the OT pass to Cozens on Ryan Miller banner raising night NOT make it into this video??
Sometimes what appears at first glance to be an oversight is actually a strategically devised omission. This however was an oversight.
Insain best breakdown I’ve seen of him been watching since he was drafted and I’m so glad to see he was in the running for the Norris. Keep doing what your doing…
This video is amazing. Great job on the editing and gathering the clips.
Great video. Thank you so much.
Thats an amazing video dude! Cred to you
Your videos are amazing. I appreciate the time that goes into these. Thanks a lot!
Thanks for these highlights.. Heja Frölunda
video editing here is just an art
Great video👍
Briliant video! Keep going!!! The best hockey player videos on RUclips, no doubt. Could you please do video of Matthews/Petterson or Hughes/Fox from last season?:) that would be fantastic!
Effortlessly brilliant, what a graceful player
The best sport compilation I've ever seen
Pretty high concept for a highlight video lol, really dug this
Great video. Thanks.
Great video
What a fantastic video, your choice of Vivaldi was perfect. As far as Rasmus is concerned, i think he would love this one!
Thanks... that's kinda the hope.
15:41 is insane how he realises exactly whats about to happen and move back accordingly
What a great video
Absolutely love this video, hope it does well
This is such a great way to put together a highlight video
Fantastic video!!!
Great video!
beautiful video
What puck control! Wow
he’s so well rounded it’s unreal
Fantastic edit

You’re an artist, sir.
I was so excited to see his game translate when he got drafted and I love that it finally is
i knew Dahlin was good, but as someone who doesnt see him alot i had no idea
Always doing the unexpectable, impossible to read, incredible talent. its Rasmus Dahlin.
Yeah but plays the easy play when he should. Just makes the right decision in every play.
Reeally good video
Your videos are just as impressive as the highlights

greatest highlight video of all time
He is junior subban whit those back tackles. Nice Hard hits.
imo he's on the same level as makar skill wise, once the sabres take off, he'll be one of the greatest just watch!
I think he is better than Makar. I take high hockey IQ over anything.
Probably the most underrated blue liner in the league.
How is it possible to be underrated being a first overall pick?
@@jyhina because he took a few years to blossom
@@XaviRonaldo0 The thing ppl don't get is that it didn't take years for him to blossom. He was great from start. He is just European and wont get any attention.
@@anklepick9524 hence underrated even by me
@@jyhinait is easy to be underrated when you get drafted by the worst team in the league and the coaches mismanage you for years.
Bro absolutely hornswoggled that first guy😂😂😂😂
I love seeing smooth skating hockey players who just tricks opponents with their skating. And not just highlights of people one-timing it.
this is fantastic
Why didn’t you end the vid with Ras smashing Matthews in the Heritage Classic? Matthews couldn’t handle that smoke!
amazing player
This is beautiful
Vivaldi was very appropriate 🙂
I was saving it for something special.
But but, have Vancouver fans told you Quinn Hughes has more pts?? Lol. Dahlin is special, period.
Any chance you can do some completes of forwards? So many Ds covered already😂
Back to back forwards coming soon...
This video is awesome! I don’t think people realize the hype for Dahlin in his draft year is holding up! He quietly is becoming what he was drafted to be. I think if it wasn’t for buffalos revolving door at head coach and for guys like Makar having unreal stats since day 1 Dahlin would be recognized
To be fair I know he got a lot of attention this year, but he’s so talented he may even deserve more
I mean he even set a point record for teen defensemen in his Rookie sesson. He was third in calder voting and the only two people in front of him were Binnigton who won the Stanley cup that year and Pettersson who had a pretty damn impressive rookie season.
U never stop Viking
Between Dahlin and Power, the Sabres will be good, good shape in the coming years..
So which two would you start in an olympic final vs Canada of Dahlin, Karlsson and Hedman? 🤔
everyone called this man a bust his first two seasons in the league now look at him !! literally can say he’s a top 5 defender in the league
Love the rendition.
Next: Norris
the next big one for the next 6-7 years
The guy hates his own goalies.
Same as Kronwall =)
Dollz doing a 9.5 would send chills but 10.5 is justified
I see alot of Börje in Rasmus. In the best kind of ways.
One thing is for certain, the Sabres cannot decide on a jersey.
if dahls improve his stamina, explosivity and shot this year, he is a norris top 3 candidate.
No way you said he needs to improve his stamina, mofo played almost 26 minutes a night on average, the third most in the NHL last season.
@@JoshDragRace0688 sure, but his shifts runs out of steam 10-15 seconds early
Where was the Dahlin to Cozens OT winner in the Maestro's Reach section?? ruclips.net/video/ukE1ZwBr7bw/видео.html
I love the guy, but at running an attacker in to your own goalie at 1:48 is a poor decision.
It's a hard decision. The guy got his head down and breaks in on the net. You got to smash him so he doesn't think he can crash the net with his head down and at the same time you have to care for the goalie.
Kronwall did this alot too. Some injured goalies.
1:54
landed on the goalies knee?
A couple of years from now, this will be the guy young defenders will try to copy.
Id like him in detriot alongside sieder 😊
Buffalo and New Jersey gonna be competing for the east title every year until 2030 bet
Out there making people look stupid. I love it
Norris is in his future.
Reavo!!!!!!!!
Super swede 🇸🇪💕
Reavo for Norris.
wow
Willing to trade Mcavoy for Dahlin 😜
Mackinnon please
Vos trucages sont bons sur Dahlin.
Not fan that he hit high with his back or hit the player towards his goaler,
but on the offensive blue line he's very creative!
I'll watch him this season fs
Those were normal in the 80s
This kid is fantastic. Too bad he's on Buffalo
“hEiSkAnEn iS BeTtEr 🥴🥴🥴”
Niklas Kronwall with more offensive skill
Yeah or EK with more defense.
Heiskanen>>>>
who?
