Dahlin, the first overall selection in this past June's NHL entry draft, is universally regarded is the top prospect entering the league. He is just the second Swedish-born player to ever be selected first overall in the NHL Draft (Mats Sundin) after scoring seven goals and 13 assist as an 18-year old for Frolunda HC of the Swedish Hockey League. He was named the 'Top Defenseman' in the 2018 World Junior Ice Hockey Championships played here in Buffalo and also represented Sweden in the 2018 Winter Olympic Games, where he was the youngest men's hockey player in the tournament.
Dahlin's appearance at Coca-Cola Field means the top prospect in both hockey and baseball will be at the ballpark at the same time. Bisons third baseman,
