DETROIT - Rasmus Dahlin's rookie season has been filled with ups and downs, from the high of a 10-game winning streak in November to the low of going eight contests without a victory in March.
For all its peaks and valleys, the rookie defenseman admitted it will be bittersweet when the Sabres wrap up their 2018-19 campaign against the Detroit Red Wings tonight at Little Caesars Arena.
"It's sad. It's not what I expected," Dahlin said. "It's pretty different. The season is ending after today, I don't know what to do. Go back home to Sweden, meet my family. But not hanging out with the boys every day, it's going to be different."
