insane edgework to open up lanes to skate, pass, and shoot. He virtually never runs out of room to do anything as he always makes room for himself with and without the puck. The way he moves, the drag shot, the passing and shooting combo is like Bedard in defenseman form.
i've never seen a defenseman with this much hype. Dahlin had a lot of hype, but nothing like this. He's unreal. His shot is lethal, he has sick hands, good passer and great vision. He plays like Connor Bedard but as a defenseman.
“Dahlin is creative. He’s developing his game without the puck in his own end but with the puck he’s so dynamic. Like [Erik] Karlsson, maybe, but so far ahead of Karlsson at the same age.” “He is a franchise-defining defenceman with an unprecedented ability to control the game in all areas. The last blueliner I saw with that capability at this age was Victor Hedman. ” - Craig Button, TSN
Its crazy I thought Connor Bedard as a D man, and three other people commented it right before. 15 years old and on pace for 90 points as a dman is insane
There's no way this kids 15 lol buddy looks like a 20 year old Vet out there. Hate using the term Generational cause we've seen so many prospects labelled that recently but Dupont's showing he deserves that moniker
