[Jfresh] (Shooting and Passing dashboards featuring AllThreeZones tracked data of the Sabres defenseman): Most notable thing here is Dahlin. He’s shooting more this season but the quality of those chances has retreated from what it was last year.

You can see the difference in the shots taken when he’s one the ice [this year relative to last season](https://imgur.com/a/9Mxi12I#U1jyMHX), which makes sense as he’s been [trying to play a more defensively responsible game](https://theathletic.com/5200765/2024/01/13/sabres-canucks-rasmus-dahlin-defense/)
>“I can’t really jump into rushes right now. I gotta have more responsibility and I have to take care of the D-zone more. It’s going to be a little bit different from my side in terms of defensively. But it’s what the team needs right now and I’m very excited for it.”
According to Corey Sznajder, who [tracks NHL microstats by hand](https://www.allthreezones.com/), Dahlin’s contributions are, “[worse than it was under Krueger.](https://twitter.com/ShutdownLine/status/1742644802745713067)” The drop in his macrostats are [stark](https://imgur.com/a/oc4qeIy#wtfuz2t).
I mean. Nowhere near $11m not even $7m performance
