    This is just semantics anyway, but to follow up and clarify...

    I said he produced those paces as a 19-21 year old. Dahlin entered the league at 18 years old, which most people forget. His second season he paced for 56 pts (19 years old) and this season he is pacing for 55 pts (21 years old) after a terribly slow start. And that's on Buffalo again being in the bottom 8 in goals/game.

    What's he's done for his age is nearly unprecedented.

    And, at 18 years old, Dahlin passed Bobby Orr as the second most points ever produced in NHL history by an 18 year old defenseman. So, some clarity was needed there!

    Agreed jcairns. Folks forget that Dahlin is younger than most of the other studs: Makar, Fox, QHughes.

    "Of every dman to play 200+ games in the NHL by age 22 in the past 30 years, Rasmus Dahlin has the 3rd highest points per game pace behind only Erik Karlsson and Bryan Berard."
