Strome right now is closer to a bust than he is ever scoring 60 points in the NHL in any position. 7th OA in a weak draft does nothing.
All this does is makes the Leafs hope one of those assets turns into a player with 70+ point upside after spending a few years developing one who is only 21 next year.
This is shiny toy syndrome and possibly the worst proposal I have ever witnessed on this board.
The guy just turned 20 and is a bust already?
19GP 12G 27pts in playoffs for Otters just now.
The proposal was bad but Strome is far from a bust.
Unless I'm wrong, Keller can't play in the AHL - he'll only be 19 this July. And he's already given up his NCAA eligibility by playing with Arizona this season. Looks like he has to be a full-time member of the Coyotes next year.
.
Would Arizona want RNH? I think Tippett would really like his game.
Would Coyotes fans be OK with sending 2 of Duclair/Rieder/DeAngelo/Crouse/7th overall for him? Oilers could add a prospect or their lower 1st depending on the return.
Agreed, he's a Tippett-style player...but the ask is far too much. Something like Perlini and AZ 2nd (35th OA) maybe.Would Arizona want RNH? I think Tippett would really like his game.

RNH would be a good addition for sure. The problem is his salary. The Coyotes are sending cost controlled assets for an over paid player. If the Oilers retain, something could be worked out.

Personally, Rieder is out for me (can't speak for Chayka ) as he's AZ's best 2-way forward. The thought of DeAngelo on that Edm PP is frightening.What about something like Rieder, DeAngelo, 3rd for RNH and our 1st (22-30 overall)?
Lol, if Nylander is going on to Coyotes the only player I would like to see coming back is Ekman-Larsson. If that player isn't on the block Nylander isn't going to Coyotes even if they throw Strome+7th +2018 1st.

Only applies to players drafted out of the CHL. Keller was taken out of the USNDT. That's also why Fischer was allowed to play in the AHL this year. He wasn't drafted out of the CHL, so even though he played a year in Canada, he was allowed to play in the AHL this year at 19

Sign both Sam Gagner and Hanzal? ^yes RNH fits the mold.
I'll probably get roasted for this from leafs fans.
Nylander

Strome + 7OA

Hardly the worst proposal and you know it. There are worse proposals in this thread alone. A few gems I quickly found from an earlier OEL for Matthews thread (sorry, I dont know how to use the multi post thing):
"Arizona could offer the entire franchise and the leafs would pass"
OR Matthews for OEL + Strome + Chychrun + Duclair + 1st
OR OEL, Keller, Domi, Strome for Matthews, Polak and a 2nd
And there are worse proposals offered almost daily on HB than Nylander for Strome and the 7th overall. I get it does not make sense for a young team like TO to trade a sure thing 21 year old for high end prospects. But it is not a terrible value.
Exactly. There are really bad/dumb proposals all the time.in the jets-leafs thread the other day a jets fan said Matthews+Rielly gets the conversation started for Trouba, then called trouba a top 10 dman

He's far from a bust, but that's a bad stat line for a player with his pedigree, drafted in his spot, playing his D+2 season in the OHL on an insane Erie team. He really should be over 2 PPG, without a doubt.
