McKenzie: Blackhawks won't qualify Dylan Strome

[Unbiased Fan]

Hyman-McDavid-Strome

Strome would be cheap and could be effective there I’d really like to see this happen. Spend the money on goaltending and bulding linemates for Drais

 

[The Red Line]

Today is such a gong show for that team, damn.

 

[GreeningOil]

Isn't Strome too slow for the NHL?

Why would McDavid want him on his wing?


Is Colorado actively pursuing Jonathan Drouin to play on MacKinnon's wing?

If Drouin was available for 1yr at 1m I bet they would

who will play for the hawks next year

 

[PostBradMalone]

Guessing he signs in Edmonton for cheap. He'll get stapled to McDavid's left side and be the support winger for him and whatever scorer ends up on the other side. This also helps Edmonton put Hyman-Draisaitl-Yamamoto together, which could be a really good puck possession unit.

 

[Skinnyjimmy08]

Rumor has it Hawks wanna get rid of all their youth and bring back Big Buff, Hjalmarsson and Seabrook to go with Toews and Kane

 

[UnleashRasmus]

Considering he's been on the block for the better part of two seasons, it's really not that shocking to me. He could find a home anywhere to be honest. Especially at his age.

 

[2CHAINZ]

Would be a great fit for the sharks who lack a finisher.

You want to add another player who lacks finish to help with your lack of finish ?

This is not smart IMO.

Yeah, he has (a lot of) flaws. But he puts up some points, the Hawks are rebuilding, and they cap room.

Give him a QO, let him go to arbitration. If the award is over $5M, walk away. If not, take him back on the 1-year deal, hope he does enough that you can get a pick for him at the deadline. If he doesn't, oh well.

I really don't see the downside in keeping him for another year. It's not like having Strome on the books for $5M is going to prevent them from signing a key free agent, the fact that they have no team will do that.

 

[Avilaj07]

I can definitely see him signing a one year deal with the Leafs for their second line lw with Tavares and Nylander.

He scored 22 goals though? Does that not count?

Playing C with Kane and DeBrincat

 

[Kakko Schmakko]

Is he some type of cancer? What is wrong with him?

 

[ChuckLefley]

Playing C with Kane and DeBrincat

They played 155.5 minutes together as a line and scored 9 goals.

He only played about 180 with Debrincat, Kane or both.

The narrative is false.

f*** you caught me. Stome is the man.

You can tell a lot about a person by how they respond when facts show that they are wrong.

Buh-bye.

I said you caught me and admitted defeat. I yielded to you good sir

 

[Reddwit]

he'll fit in nicely on McD's wing

Strome - McD - Yamo
Kane - Drai - X
Hyman - RNH - Pulju

Kane, lol.

 

[Vitto79]

Ryan and Dylan to Seattle , book it

He had no real value this deadline or last summer. And they don't want someone to to put up some points.

 

[Ruggs225]

We just got rid of one Strome. I would lose my shit if we picked up his worse brother

What if we get both! Strome squared.

Would love it just to read our boards. Hours of entertainment.

 

[DingDongCharlie]

I’d be all for a cheap 1-2 year deal in Edmonton.

Kane is gone, Puljujarvi is going. We need NHL bodies on the cheap so we can address bigger needs.

 

[LEAFANFORLIFE23]

is there a more unlucky franchise than the Coyotes?

They do it to themselves, even tonight they could have had Shane Wright

 

[clydesdale line]

I wonder if he goes to Ottawa as well to play with DeBrincat again.
