I actually like that lineup a lot. They played hard towards the end of the season and if Dahlin is in there with Carlson, Chychrun, and Ekman-Larsson then that could be dangerous. Also love the group of forwards. I think they could flip their season around and make the playoffs if they play their cards right and the lottery goes well.

I would honestly feel awful for Rasmus Dahlin if he ended up in Arizona. Not because it is not a wonderful city and state, which it is, but because their management team have proven they simply do not know what they are doing. Arizona has some great young pieces and prospects, and seems that it is always the case, yet, they seem to also always be at the very bottom of the standings year in and year out.

What did you send to Washington in order to get Carlson on an 8 year deal. For Carlson to sign for 8 years it can only be with Washington. Then for Arizona or any other team to get him on an 8 year deal they would have to make a deal with Washington.
