Dahlin picked up two assists Thursday in a 4-3 loss to Calgary.
EDGE Analysis
Dahlin, who joined the rich defenseman club last week with a massive eight-year, $88 million contract, has points in three consecutive games (four assists). Dahlin is coming off a 15-goal, 73-point (78 games) breakout season, so it's merely a matter of time before he starts to up the offense even more. And especially with his prominent role running the top power-play unit.

Dahlin tallied an assist and three shots in Tuesday's 3-2 overtime win over Tampa Bay.
EDGE Analysis
Dahlin was on the ice for 25:54 on Tuesday, leading all Buffalo skaters, as he picked up his second assist in three games on Dylan Cozens' game-winning goal in overtime. The 23-year-old Dahlin signed an eight-year extension with the Sabres after breaking out with 73 points (15 goals, 58 assists) in 78 games last season. He's set up for another big year on Buffalo's top paring while continuing to work the point on the first power-play unit.

Dahlin signed an eight-year, $88 million contract extension with Buffalo on Monday.
EDGE Analysis
When Dahlin's contract kicks in next season, he will become the highest-paid player on the Sabres, surpassing Jeff Skinner's $9 million AAV. Dahlin is coming off a career year in which he set new personal bests in goals (15), assists (58) and power-play points (32). The 23-year-old Swede figures to continue anchoring the No. 1 power-play unit this season and figures to offer top-end fantasy value.

Dahlin scored a power-play goal and added two even-strength assists in Saturday's 4-3 win over Carolina.
EDGE Analysis
The blueliner had a hand in each of Buffalo's first three goals on the afternoon, setting the stage for some third-period heroics by Tage Thompson. Dahlin snapped a 28-game goal drought with his second-period tally, as he recorded his first multi-point performance since Feb. 23, but the late swoon takes nothing away from his career-best numbers. On the season, the 22-year-old has 15 goals and 72 points in 74 games.

Dahlin produced a power-play assist in Friday's 5-4 win over the Devils.
EDGE Analysis
Dahlin now has 18 points in 17 career games against New Jersey, and that's the most he's put up against any team. On the season, the electrifying blueliner has amassed 14 goals, 51 assists and 30 power-play points through 67 contests. Those are all career highs, as is the lesser-known figure of 113 blocked shots. Remember, Dahlin is just 22 years old but he's already in his fifth season -- it'll be fun to uncover the full scope of his immense potential and to see the type of deal he'll command after banking $6 million AAV on his first (three-year) standard contract.

Dahlin (upper body) is on the ice for warmups and is expected to suit up Monday against Toronto, Paul Hamilton of WGR Sports Radio 550 reports.
EDGE Analysis
Dahlin is dealing with a minor injury, but it won't force him to miss any action. The 22-year-old blueliner has already set career highs with 14 goals and 63 points through 61 games this season. He's posted a minus-4 rating during his current four-game pointless drought.

Dahlin (upper body) will be a game-time decision ahead of Monday's clash with the Leafs.
EDGE Analysis
Dahlin's offense has dried up of late, as he has just one assist over his last five contests. If the Swedish blueliner does suit up versus Toronto, he figures to see significant minutes, including with the No. 1 power-play unit. In that role, Dahlin should have plenty of opportunities to get back onto the scoresheet.
