I used to think Dach just needed a change of scenery (like Montreal did) but recently, because of conversation here, I looked into him a little bit deeper and I don’t actually think he’s much of a centre at all. Certainly not a 1st line centre, nor a “great” depth centre.
He’s terrible at faceoffs, doesn’t forecheck, and has lacking defensive coverage. I know it’s like “oooo a 6’4 centre!” but he’s closer to a more talented Joe Colborne. Actually, he’s scarily similar to Joe Colborne.
