In reading this I don’t see Dahlen as a loss. He wasn’t a fit in our top 6 & didn’t or wasn’t going to get a chance. We have the scoring components & just a matter of good or better 3rd wheels to gel lines. Mid 6 potential F’s are more likely available in drafts with hope that they blossom into more. Still is & always will be a need for more RHD with upside for top 4.
The farm hasn’t been good enough & has to get better both developing & in winning.

Dahlen sucks and he is a whiney little B!tch: yes he is on the first line in SJ, but that’s the worst forward group in the league (maybe AZ is worse )

He wanted to get traded because he felt he wasn't being developed properly. The few good deals JB made were negated by his poor communication and management skills.

Dahlen never committed to what it takes to fill his ego. As Don says he’s 1st line on a lousy team. Prolific players are 1st liners not headcases who don’t. He’s a dime a dozen filler at best. Just another winger who doesn’t have enough overall impact.
