Brandon Dubinsky is the only Blue Jackets center who has won more than 50 percent of his draws, and he is the only center who qualifies as a veteran. He also relishes big moments. In three of the last four games, Dubinsky has won late-game faceoffs that led to goals by right wing Cam Atkinson, resulting in an overtime victory over Washington on Nov. 15, an empty-net goal to ice a win over the New York Rangers on Friday, and a goal with 6.5 seconds left in regulation to force overtime against Colorado on Monday. In the fourth game, he won two of three faceoffs in the final minute to ice a win Sunday at Washington. How badly does Dubinsky want to be on the dot in those situations? Tortorella relayed a scene from the win over the Rangers, for whom Dubinsky once played and Tortorella once coached. The Blue Jackets were protecting a 3-2 lead in the final minute. “Dubi loses two draws in a row (against Rangers center Mika Zibanejad) and he’s burning a hole through me on the ice, daring me to take him off,” Tortorella said. “I’m thinking ‘Well, I’ve got (William Karlsson).’ And Dubi’s burning a hole through me, ‘Don’t you dare.’ I know him well enough that he is going to win the third one, and he does. That’s Dubi. He has been struggling offensively. But he has the will, that intangible … he just brings people into it.” Tortorella grinned at the thought of how the situation could have ended differently. “It would have been ugly if I took him off the ice,” Tortorella said. “I know he would have done something stupid going to the bench, and then I would have been on him and it would have turned into a mess. He was just daring me to take him off the ice … and I love it. I love it.” Dubinsky has won 53.3 percent of his draws, followed by centers Lukas Sedlak (47.3), William Karlsson (45.5) and Alexander Wennberg (44.5). Late in Monday’s 3-2 overtime loss to Colorado, Tortorella had left wings Nick Foligno and Boone Jenner stepping in for draws. Slap shots Left wing Matt Calvert will play in his 300th career game Wednesday, all with the Blue Jackets. … Atkinson's two-goal game Monday pushed him into seventh on the franchise’s all-time points list at 182 (93 goals, 89 assists), one ahead of Nikolay Zherdev. 2 http://bluejacketsxtra.dispatch.com/content/stories/2016/11/23/blue-jackets--veteran-gagner-turns- to-skills-coach-turns-around-career.html Veteran Sam Gagner among NHL players turning to skills coaches for extra help By Tom Reed - November 23, 2016 Sam Gagner stood in the Blue Jackets’ locker room and dished out assists for his fine start to the season like they were saucer passes to streaking teammates. He mentioned the organization for believing in him enough to offer a one-year, $650,000 contract after he scored only eight goals in Philadelphia last season. He credited the coaching staff for putting him positions to succeed. He cited his father, Dave, a former NHL player, who got back on the ice and worked with him in the offseason. Gagner also highlighted the contributions of Hall of Fame center Adam Oates, who began counseling the forward this summer and continues to advise him. It’s the last name on the list that might surprise fans, seeing as Oates is no relation to Gagner and not in the employ of the franchise. He’s a freelance coach and part of a growing number of skills consultants helping NHL players and prospects. “He has been great,” Gagner said. “I worked with him over the summer on a lot of different things he saw in my game last year that he felt I could improve on. We go over video after every game this year to find different ways to get better, and I think that has been really helping.” Gagner, tied for the team lead with seven goals to along with five assists, believes he has the best of both worlds. The 10-year pro said he is benefiting from the knowledge of Blue Jackets assistant Kenny McCudden, who serves as the club’s skills and skating coach, and the instruction of Oates, a former Washington coach and New Jersey and Tampa Bay assistant. Some teams, however, are grappling with the idea of outside influence on their players. The New York Post reported that private skills coaches were a topic of conversation at the NHL general managers meetings in the spring. Blue Jackets general manager Jarmo Kekalainen said in a text message, “What (Gagner) does away from the rink is his business,” whereas coach John Tortorella prefers the forward to work strictly with McCudden. “I don’t want our players working with Adam Oates,” Tortorella said. “I want them working with Kenny. Easy answer … Kenny is the best in the business.” The consultant field is growing. Toronto recently hired consulting pioneer Darryl Belfry, who mentors players around the league. The concept of coaches as independent contractors is nothing new. NBA players have employed private shooting instructors for years. Steve Wicklum, founder of My Pro Hero, puts athletes in touch with tutors specializing in skills, nutrition, conditioning and even the “mental side” of sports. The idea, he said, is to hone a player’s individual attributes, which in turn should benefit their teams. 3 Oates, who emphasizes stick skills like picking up pucks off the boards, has a 40-player client list that includes Steven Stamkos, Mark Scheifele and Zach Parise. Last season, his presence at a Minnesota Wild practice to watch Parise irked former coach Mike Yeo. Edmonton Oilers coach Todd McLellan said he sees both sides of the argument. “I think a lot of the skills coaches do a tremendous job,” McLellan said. “They’ve got great ideas, great technique, and they’re working on some of the things we can’t work on during the season because it’s just overwhelming, the lack of time that we have with travel, games and that type of stuff. … (But) we might be asking (a player) to play a certain role on the power play, and if his personal coach is asking him to do something different, it’s not going to work.” Gagner stressed that Oates has never dissuaded him from following the Blue Jackets’ philosophies. The forward is a key member of the team’s top-ranked power play, which is converting 31.1 percent of its chances. “(Oates) is always asking me, ‘What do your coaches want here?’ ’’ Gagner said of watching clips together on video conference. “I explain what we’re doing in the system and he says, ‘Great.’ He never interferes with that, which I like. At the end of the day, you have to play within a team system to be successful.” Gagner, the sixth overall pick in 2007 NHL draft, is one of the comeback stories of the season. He is an example of a player using as many teaching tools at his disposal to jump-start his career. “He knows this is probably his last kick at the can, and it’s amazing what it does for athletes,” Tortorella said. “I think he has done some soul searching and to me right now, he’s a great story — and it’s with the Columbus Blue Jackets.” 4 http://www.thehockeynews.com/news/article/why-we-shouldn-t-trust-the-columbus-blue-jackets-hot- start Why we shouldn't trust the Blue Jackets' hot start By Matt Larkin – November 23, 2016 The Jackets have been a powerhouse early on this NHL season. Are they delivering on the promise they showed two years ago? Or is it smoke and mirrors? We saw this coming from the Columbus Blue Jackets. Then we didn't. Two seasons ago, the Jackets ended their regular season with a sizzling 12-0-1 run. They carried a ton of momentum into 2015-16, especially after trading for Brandon Saad. We at THN picked them to make the playoffs. They fell flat on their faces, embarrassing themselves and everyone who predicted big things from them.

    Buffalo Sabres Daily Press Clips March 9, 2021 Sabres' Rasmus Dahlin experiencing growing pains in new role on defense By Lance Lysowski The Buffalo News March 9, 2021 PHILADELPHIA – Rasmus Dahlin did not hang his head. He didn’t even glance at a group of New York Islanders swarming forward Matt Martin to celebrate their fifth goal Thursday night. Dahlin, now a 20-year-old defenseman and 164 games into a National Hockey League career that began with his selection first overall at the 2018 draft, skated toward the Buffalo Sabres’ bench and used his right hand to lift his stick in the air to signal for a line change. Martin, a fourth-line grinder known more for his right hook than scoring touch, had just skated by Dahlin and across the front of the Sabres’ net before jamming the puck past goalie Jonas Johansson to seal the Islanders' 5- 2 win. In years past, Dahlin’s frustration might have boiled over. One of the NHL’s bright young defensemen, Dahlin has grown accustomed to the sometimes overwhelming emotion that comes with failure. He’s experienced more than his fair share during his third season in the NHL. Entering Monday, Dahlin owned a league-worst minus-21 rating – on pace for minus-75 if this were an 82-game season – and advanced metrics illustrate how he’s struggling at times to adjust to a bigger role defensively. “It comes (down to forgetting) things, it comes (down) to working harder,” Dahlin said matter of factly. “You are allowed to get (upset) at yourself.
