Rasmus Dahlin is as close to a sure thing as there can be in the 2018 NHL Entry Draft. He is rated the top pick by NHL Central Scouting and every hockey insider, website and news organization in the business. He has been called a “generational” player. The expectation is that he can step right into the NHL and have an immediate impact. According to many, he will be a guaranteed Norris Trophy winner at some point in his career.
Rasmus Dahlin in a Rangers uniform would jump start the rebuild and make the team a playoff contender in 2018-19.
