Dahlin collected two power-play assists in Friday's 5-4 win over the Wild.
EDGE Analysis
He also chipped in two shots, four blocked shots, two PIM and a plus-2 rating. The first overall pick in the 2018 NHL Entry Draft has had some growing pains in his career, but Dahlin may finally be emerging as an elite blueliner. Over his last 10 games, the 21-year-old has one goal and nine points, including four helpers with the man advantage.

Dahlin (lower body) will return to the lineup Wednesday versus the Canadiens, Heather Engel of NHL.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
Dahlin only missed one game with the injury. He had a goal and four assists in his five previous contests, and he'll return to his usual top-pairing role. Fantasy managers should feel confident utilizing Dahlin as they typically would going forward.

Dahlin's (lower body) scans revealed no significant damage. The defenseman isn't expected to practice Tuesday but will at least get onto the ice for a rehab skate, Mike Harrington of The Buffalo News reports.
EDGE Analysis
If Dahlin is able to join his teammates for a full practice session Tuesday, it could clear the way for him to be in the lineup against the Canadiens on Wednesday. Prior to getting hurt, the 21-year-old Swede was riding a five-game point streak and will no doubt be eager to pick up where he left off.

Dahlin supplied two power-play assists in Saturday's 6-3 win over the Flyers.
EDGE Analysis
The fourth-year defenseman also committed roughing and holding penalties to keep his ice time below the 20-minute mark, but this was a nice way for Dahlin to follow up a three-point effort that was overshadowed in Thursday's loss to the Stars. Dahlin now has seven goals and 21 assists through 41 games.

Dahlin had a goal and two assists, including one on the power play, in Thursday's 5-4 loss to the Stars.
EDGE Analysis
Dahlin made a beautiful move for the game's opening goal, walking around his man at the point before taking the puck all the way to the net to open the scoring just 2:47 into the opening frame. He added an assist on Jack Quinn's power-play goal 3:50 later and dished another helper on Alex Tuch's go-ahead goal in the second, but Buffalo's offense dried up in the third. With seven goals and 19 assists through 40 games, Dahlin's on pace to reach the 50-point mark for the first time.
