  • Sabres' Rasmus Dahlin: Nets first goal of season

    Dahlin scored a goal on six shots and added four PIM in Monday's 5-2 loss to the Panthers.

    The goal was Dahlin's first in 10 appearances this season. He's been showing more on offense with four points over his last two contests. Overall, he has six points, 23 shots on net, 11 hits, 13 blocked shots, eight PIM and a plus-2 rating while filling a top-pairing role as the Sabres' top defenseman.

  • Sabres' Rasmus Dahlin: Three helpers Saturday

    Dahlin recorded three assists, one on the power play, in Saturday's 5-3 win over Detroit.

    The 24-year-old put together his first multi-point performance of the season, helping to set up each of Buffalo's first three goals as the team surged out to a 3-1 lead early in the second period. Dahlin is still looking for his first goal of 2024-25, but he's produced five assists in the last six contests.

  • Sabres' Rasmus Dahlin: Goalless to open season

    Dahlin has yet to score a goal this season despite registering 10 shots through five games.

    Dahlin put up five shots in Wednesday's 6-5 defeat to the Penguins, so it's possible a goal is right around the corner for the blueliner. The fact that he's managed just one assist as well during this five-game stretch is no doubt a concern for fantasy players. Unless he can turn things around quickly, he may not be able to repeat last season's 20-goal, 59-point performance.

  • Sabres' Rasmus Dahlin: Playing Friday

    Dahlin (undisclosed) is playing in Friday's exhibition contest against EHC Red Bull Munchen of Germany's Deutsche Eishockey Liga.

    Dahlin missed some preseason action due to the injury, but it appears he'll be fine for the start of the campaign. Buffalo's 2024-25 season will begin with a pair of games Oct. 4-5 against New Jersey in Prague. Friday's contest is being held in Munich.

  • Sabres' Rasmus Dahlin: Cleared for contact

    Dahlin (undisclosed) joined the Sabres on the ice Wednesday without wearing a non-contact jersey.

    Dahlin missed Tuesday's preseason contest against Pittsburgh, but he seems to be making progress. Perhaps he'll be in action versus Red Bull Munchen on Friday, but of course, there's no reason for Buffalo to rush him during training camp, so it wouldn't be surprising if he ends up missing additional exhibition action.

  • Sabres' Rasmus Dahlin: Out again Tuesday

    Dahlin (undisclosed), as expected, won't play in Tuesday's preseason clash with Pittsburgh, Lance Lysowski of The Buffalo News reports.

    Dahlin was a long shot to appear in Tuesday's tilt after sitting out against the Blue Jackets on Monday. At this point, the team seems to be taking a precautionary approach to the blueliner's recovery timeline. There have been no indications Dahlin won't be ready for Opening Night -- though he will have less time to recover than the rest of the league due to the Sabres' participation in the Global Series in Czechia against New Jersey on Oct. 4/5.

  • Sabres' Rasmus Dahlin: Won't play against Jackets

    Dahlin (undisclosed) will not be in the lineup versus Columbus on Monday.

    Dahlin seems unlikely to play in Tuesday's clash with the Penguins given the quick turnaround, but the fact that he was back skating with the non-game group Monday could leave the door open. At this point, there is no reason to suspect the blueliner won't be ready for Opening Night against the Devils on Oct. 4, but he may need to shake off some rust if he doesn't get much action in the preseason.

  • Sabres' Rasmus Dahlin: Not playing Saturday

    Dahlin (undisclosed) skated Friday but will not play Saturday in Buffalo's first preseason game against Pittsburgh, according to Joe Yerdon of Bleacher Report.

    Dahlin was injured at practice Wednesday. He will need a couple more days to return to health and could play as early as Monday versus Columbus. Dahlin had a stellar 2023-24 campaign, picking up 20 goals and 39 assists in 81 regular-season contests.

  • Sabres' Rasmus Dahlin: Expected to miss two days

    Dahlin (undisclosed) is expected to sit out only a couple of days after he was injured during practice Wednesday, Heather Engel of NHL.com reports.

    Dahlin is doing well according to coach Lindy Ruff. The talented bleuliner had 20 goals and 59 points in 81 regular-season games last year, which was a drop from 2022-23 when he managed 73 points in 78 games as a 22 year old. Dahlin should be a top-five pick among defensemen in most fantasy drafts this season.

  • Sabres' Rasmus Dahlin: Hurt during practice

    Dahlin left Wednesday's practice before its conclusion due to an undisclosed injury, per Lance Lysowski of The Buffalo News.

    Dahlin was hurt while attempting to make a pass. It's not known yet how significant the injury is, but Dahlin is a huge part of Buffalo's blue line, so if he misses time in the regular season, that would naturally leave a significant hole for the Sabres to deal with. In that scenario, Henri Jokiharju might see an increase in even-strength ice time while Bowen Byram or Owen Power would move up to the first power-play unit.

  • Sabres' Rasmus Dahlin: Nets 20th goal

    Dahlin scored a goal on three shots in Tuesday's 3-2 loss to the Stars.

    Dahlin put Buffalo ahead 2-1 midway through the opening period, sliding a wrister through Jake Oettinger for his 20th goal of the season. It's the first time the 23-year-old blueliner has reached that mark in his NHL career. Dahlin now has three goals and five points in his last five games. He's up to 58 points (20 goals, 38 assists) through 78 games this year.

  • Sabres' Rasmus Dahlin: Three points against Caps

    Dahlin scored a power-play goal and added two even-strength assists in Tuesday's 6-2 win over the Capitals.

    The 23-year-old blueliner's tally early in the third period kicked off a Sabres surge that saw them beat Charlie Lindgren three times in two and a half minutes, chasing the Washington goalie from the game. Dahlin hadn't produced a three-point performance since Nov. 19, and while he won't come close to last season's career-high 73 points -- he's at 56 with six games left on the schedule -- his 18 goals on the season are already a new personal best, as are his 177 hits and 144 blocked shots.

  • Sabres' Rasmus Dahlin: Contributes helper Friday

    Dahlin logged an assist, two shots on goal and four hits in Friday's 5-2 win over the Devils.

    Dahlin set up Tage Thompson's hat-trick-clinching goal at 15:26 of the third period, which stood as the game-winner. Prior to Friday, Dahlin had gone three contests without a point. The defenseman is at 53 points, 213 shots on net, 172 hits, 140 blocked shots, 50 PIM and a minus-6 rating over 73 appearances. Dahlin remains the Sabres' top defenseman, though he'll fall well short of the 73-point campaign he put together a year ago.

  • Sabres' Rasmus Dahlin: Scores both goals in loss

    Dahlin scored twice on four shots, blocked four shots, logged two hits and added two PIM in Tuesday's 3-2 loss to the Canucks.

    Dahlin snapped a nine-game goal drought with his pair of third-period goals. The defenseman had four helpers during that span. The 23-year-old is at a career-high 17 goals while adding 35 assists, 200 shots on net, 163 hits, 133 blocked shots, 46 PIM and a minus-6 rating over 69 appearances. His offense is notably down from last season, but he still does enough overall to be a strong fantasy blueliner.
