Swedish top draft pick Dahlin signs with Sabres
Swedish teen defenseman Rasmus Dahlin, the top pick in last month’s National Hockey League Draft, signed a three-year contract on Monday with the Buffalo Sabres.
No financial terms were disclosed but it was expected to be for the maximum US$11.325 million allowed under rules on extra-level NHL deals. Dahlin, who turned 18 in April, scored eight goals and set up 15 others in 67 games for Swedish league side Frolunda over the past two seasons, the most ever by an under-18 Swedish league defenseman. Dahlin is the first Swede selected first overall in the NHL Draft since Quebec picked Mats Sundin in 1989.
