Rasmus Dahlin's emergence as a team leader and one of the NHL's top offensive blue-line threats earned him an eight-year extension
BUFFALO, N.Y. — Buffalo Sabres defenceman Rasmus Dahlin’s emergence as a team leader and one of the NHL’s top offensive blue-line threats last season earned him an eight-year, $88 million contract extension on Monday.With much of the discussions conducted over the summer, the deal was finally completed as the Sabres prepare to open the regular season hosting the New York Rangers on Thursday.
It’s a group made up of centers Tage Thompson, who last year signed seven-year, $50 million contract, and Dylan Cozens and defenceman Mattias Samuelsson . And it’s expected to eventually include defenceman Owen Power, the first player drafted in 2021. His 15 goals were a career-best and most by a Buffalo blue-liner since Alexei Zhitnik scored that many in 1997-98. Dahlin’s 73 points, also a career-best, were tied for fifth among NHL defencemen, and ranked third on the Sabres single-season list behind Phil Housley, who holds the top two spots with 81 in 1989-90 and 77 in 1983-84.
