DETROIT - Nicklas Lidstrom, the Detroit Red Wings' seven-time Norris Trophy winner and one of the game's all-time greats, made an appearance at Saturday's game.
Lidstrom told reporters that Rasmus Dahlin, the Swedish phenom expected to be selected first overall in this year's draft, is better that he was at that age (17).
Dahlin is a generational talent, the best defense prospect in decades, analysts say. The team that wins the April 28 draft lottery will feel like it hit the jackpot.
