Value wise I agree, but I’m not sure where Stromes value’s at right now especially since his struggles are well documented on national TV right now during the playoffs.
Well, it certainly doesn't help that he is playing with 2 guys who don't score. He needs help on his line, and Nylander and Cagguila aren't the right type of players for him, IMO. He needs to be with Cat, at the very least. But even the Cat isn't scoring these days.
I'm not sure where his value is at either, but it's certainly higher than Copp, a 3rd does nothing to add value to the trade. A GM will see his potential and possibly give up a late 1st or really good prospect for him. I'd rather go that route.
