Top Rasmus Dahlin News

  • Sabres' Rasmus Dahlin: Plucks two power-play apples in win

    Dahlin logged a pair of power-play assists, two shots on goal and four PIM in Saturday's 3-2 win over the Kings.

    Dahlin has produced a pair of helpers in back-to-back games for his first two multi-point efforts of the year. The star defenseman is up to nine points (five on the power play), 34 shots on net, 18 hits, 16 blocked shots, six PIM and a plus-4 rating across 11 appearances. In terms of all-around production, Dahlin is about as reliable as it gets in fantasy.

  • Sabres' Rasmus Dahlin: Garners two assists

    Dahlin logged two assists (one on the power play), fired four shots on net, added two hits and went plus-3 in Thursday's 7-6 win over the Ducks.

  • Sabres' Rasmus Dahlin: Logs helper Saturday

    Dahlin notched an assist and three shots on goal in Saturday's 4-3 overtime loss to the Capitals.

    This was Dahlin's second game back after missing three due to an upper-body injury. The defenseman has played significantly in all the games where he hasn't gotten hurt, topping 25 minutes of ice time on seven occasions this season. The Sabres are leaning heavily on their top four, and Dahlin leads the way. He has five points, 26 shots on net, 12 hits, 15 blocked shots and an even plus-minus rating over eight appearances.

  • Sabres' Rasmus Dahlin: Good to play

    Dahlin (upper body) is expected to be fine for Wednesday's game against Philadelphia, per Heather Engel of NHL.com.

    Dahlin missed Buffalo's past three games because of the injury. He has two goals and four points in six appearances this season. Now that he's healthy, Dahlin is expected to serve in a top-four capacity, while Dennis Gilbert is projected to be a healthy scratch versus the Flyers.

  • Sabres' Rasmus Dahlin: Targeting Wednesday return

    Dahlin (upper body) told reporters he "thinks he'll be ready" for Wednesday's clash with Philadelphia.

    Dahlin would be making his first appearance since Oct. 12 versus the Panthers, a stretch of three games on the shelf due to his upper-body problem. Prior to getting hurt, the 26-year-old blueliner registered two goals and two assists, including a pair of power-play points, in six contests.

  • Sabres' Rasmus Dahlin: Ruled out for Saturday's matchup

    Dahlin (upper body) has been ruled out for Saturday's game against the Canadiens, Matthew Fairburn of The Athletic reports.

    Head coach Lindy Ruff said Thursday that Dahlin was 50/50 to play Saturday, but the 26-year-old won't travel with the team to Montreal. However, Ruff said Friday that Dahlin is progressing, so it seems possible that he'll be in consideration to return Wednesday against the Flyers. Across six appearances to begin the regular season, Dahlin has recorded two goals, two assists, 14 blocked shots, eight hits and two PIM while averaging 23:38 of ice time.

  • Sabres' Rasmus Dahlin: Deemed 50/50 for Saturday

    Dahlin (upper body) has been ruled out for Thursday's clash against the Maple Leafs and is considered to be questionable for Saturday's game in Montreal, per Paul Hamilton of WGR Sports Radio 550.

    Head coach Lindy Ruff stated that Dahlin is a 50/50 to play in Saturday's clash, which ultimately rules him out for the Sabres' matchup on Thursday. The 26-year-old Dahlin is slated to miss his second consecutive game Thursday after compiling two goals, four points, 19 shots on net, eight hits and 14 blocked shots across six appearances to begin the 2026-27 campaign. If he's given the green light for Saturday, he'll likely return to the Sabres' top pairing, where he's been an elite fantasy option thus far.

  • Sabres' Rasmus Dahlin: Won't play Tuesday

    Dahlin (upper body) has been ruled out for Tuesday's game against Montreal, Heather Engel of NHL.com reports.

    Dahlin suffered an upper-body injury during Monday's matchup against the Panthers, and he won't travel with the Sabres ahead of the second half of the back-to-back set. Head coach Lindy Ruff said that Dahlin is considered day-to-day, so the 26-year-old's next opportunity to return will be Thursday in Toronto, though it's not yet clear whether he'll be deemed healthy enough to suit up.

  • Sabres' Rasmus Dahlin: Exits with upper-body injury

    Dahlin won't return to Monday's game against the Panthers due to an upper-body injury.

    Dahlin had a productive start to Monday's matchup, recording a goal on four shots, as well as a blocked shot, in 9:06 of ice time. He saw some playing time early in the second period but departed the bench area and was ruled out shortly after. The severity of his injury isn't yet clear, and whether the issue will impact his availability for Tuesday's game against Montreal remains to be seen.

  • Sabres' Rasmus Dahlin: Among NHL's best defenders

    Dahlin scored a goal in Saturday's 4-3 win over Chicago.

    Dahlin is one of the best goal-scoring defenders in the NHL. He's fifth overall in that category in the last three seasons (37), behind Cale Makar (51), Jacob Chychrun (47), Zach Werenski (45) and Evan Bouchard (39). Dahlin is also sixth overall in points in that same span with 143. He's coming off a third-place finish in Norris trophy voting last season, the highest finish ever for a Buffalo defender. Dahlin's 74 points (19 goals, 55 assists) established a new career high for the 26-year-old.

  • Sabres' Rasmus Dahlin: Tallies in Game 7 loss

    Dahlin scored a goal on five shots and blocked two shots in Monday's 3-2 overtime loss to the Canadiens in Game 7.

    Dahlin's third-period tally forced overtime, but he didn't have one more heroic moment in him. The defenseman ended the postseason on a five-game point streak, in which he earned three goals and seven assists. Overall, he produced four goals, 10 helpers, 46 shots on net, 15 hits, 15 blocked shots, 20 PIM and a plus-4 rating over 13 appearances in his first taste of postseason action. Dahlin is poised to be a pillar of the Sabres' defense for years to come and makes for a good pick to lead a fantasy blue line in drafts this fall.

  • Sabres' Rasmus Dahlin: Erupts for five points

    Dahlin scored a goal on three shots, distributed four assists, added two PIM and went plus-2 in Saturday's 8-3 win over the Canadiens in Game 6.

    Dahlin's tally opened the scoring 32 seconds into the game. Three of his four helpers came on the power play as the Sabres' offense erupted in the final two periods. Dahlin has three multi-point efforts over 12 playoff contests. This was the third instance of a Buffalo skater recording a five-point game in the playoffs -- John Tucker did it April 10, 1988, versus the Bruins, and Derek Roy matched that record May 5, 2006, against the Senators. Dahlin has three goals, 10 helpers, 41 shots on net, 20 PIM, 14 hits, 13 blocked shots and a plus-4 rating this postseason.
