Proposal: CHI - MTL

[alasania94]

Habs could use a 3 C and already have 3 capable defensive C's - Strome would be sheltered
Hawks are thin on LD so adding a solid LD prospect in Struble + Byron to offset cap - also a serviceable bottom 6 forward

Chi: Dylan Strome
Habs: Jayden Struble + Paul Byron (offset cap)

Habs roll:

Toffoli - Suzuki - Caufield
Drouin - Dvorak - Anderson
Hoffman - Strome - Gallagher
Lehkonen - Evans - Armia

Habs over cap if that goes through.

how does one shelter strome on the bottom 6 checking lines . if he's not gonna be in your top six it won't work

 

[Zahra Starker]

We really don't need or want strome. I wouldn't trade struble for him tbh also we have plenty of cap room for byron. He was really good in last years playoffs.

 

[newmanager]

Hawks are loaded on LD. Struble would be about 12th in their depth chart.

 

[CanadienShark]

Habs are better off banking on Struble booming. Strome is worthless.

 

[Ledge And Dairy]

Seems like a pretty easy no from Chicago, Lehkonen and a pick makes way more sense

 

[Grand Admiral Thrawn]

Yeah... no on Strome.

Id rather stick with Evans since atleast he can play a 2 way game.

Scoring third lines are a thing, and becoming more and more common in today’s NHL.

Struble is so underrated, might be the best habs prospect not being in the NHL right now. Superstar potential à la Subban...

I certainly wouldn't trade him for D. Strome who doesn't even have a playing spot on a bubble team like Chicago.

Change him for Norlinder, who's a Gustafsson v.2.0, and we have a deal...

Yeah, but the OP doesn’t care about the Hawks needs.
