In a pool where only goals and assists count for points, what do some think his potential is point-wise?
We talking Dahlin or Theoren Fleury?? This is confusing..

Dahlin...it's an interesting question. He's seen as franchise-potential, but how does he stack up points-wise? I don't know.
I'd say 60 pts in his prime. 20-30 pts in his rookie season. Possibly more.
Obviously it depends on how league scoring in general changes but I wouldn't be shocked to see him winning the defensemen scoring race at some point, so I guess he could go up to 80 points then.
I think it also depends on what team he is drafted to and what system he has to adapt to..

I don't see him hitting 80 - that's Karlsson's gig. But I could see him snagging a couple Norris' and D scoring titles along the way.
More Lidstrom digits, minus the 80.
I think he will get to the 70 point mark some years. He is a very special talent. One of the most impressive draft eligible blueliners I've seen. 80 is a very high mark that only a couple players have had in this era...I think he is one of the players who could get there but it's an outside chance.

I'm being practical and as conservative as possible.
If the Swords click, and he gets PP1 time early, he could break 45 in year 1 and snag the Calder.
If anyone has the chance to touch 80, it's him, but I think he falls short unless he pulls a "Sid" and works on his shot like a maniac.
My biggest concern about this kid is the way he over-dangles and cuts through the middle. He needs to have his head on a swivel... but he'll top off at 6-4, 215.
