Dylan Strome Appreciation Thread

[BK]

Does he run his training in Toronto? If so there'd be no reason for Strome not to go.

I believe so. There are a bunch of good trainers there if not.

if only he looked out his window this year he would have seen 1 fan on the other side of the glass hiding in his bushes....

With lots of empty bottles of lotion, empty tubs of Vaseline, and physically stuck to some of the bushes.

If i can figure out how to upload vids from Snapchat I’d show you guys Dylan Strome scoring his first goal from behind the glass.

I was there for his first ever game as a Blackhawk sitting in Bowman’s VIP seats two rows off the glass. Very cool stuff

Strome is ****ing cool man

That he's staying in town and adhering to Cat's training regimen, speaks volumes. He had some success, but he wants more. And he's doing something about it. Incremental improvements in skating, strength and quickness, should elevate his game. Am thinking we'll get a new and improved version of Strome this season.

Scary part is there is so much incremental improvement to be had physically and he was already at nearly a ppg pace with Cat with the awkward skating, etc that a fully polished Strome in a couple years will have massive upside. Arizona did such a terrible job developing him..

Indeed. He's far from a finished product. Vaseline by the barrel!

How many points you guys expecting out of Strome next year?

 

[Hawkaholic]

How many points you guys expecting out of Strome next year?

55-60 for me. Anything over that is gravy.

I expect 65-75 points but like Hawk said anything over 60 is gravy.

My conservative estimate is 60-65. I think he can go higher than that depending on linemates and how much of an impact his offseason training makes.

 

[b1e9a8r5s]

65 pts

How many points you guys expecting out of Strome next year?

60-70. 85+ wouldn't surprise me if he pulled it off though.

Can you imagine! Everyone in this thread would be forced to buy a Strome Jersey if that happened

I am afraid that the posters here are a little high in expectation for Strome. yes, he had a great year last year and showed promise. He likely will be better conditioned, stronger and will possess more stamina than last year - if the conditioning & training he undertook this summer bears fruit. And he will be more experienced and more polished. So... I see why people are excited and it is reasonable to project some of the numbers that people are projecting for him. But...

That was one season (last year). Lets give it time before we proclaim him the points machine that many here are doing. As a second-line center, if he is well-rounded (face-offs, possession, back contribution to defense, etc.) then if he is a 50-55 pt player that would be good, borderline very good. If he did that, then we should all be pleased. Anything beyond that, we should be thrilled. Placing expectations on a second-line center to be a near point-per-game player (or more) is expecting a great deal. I think the kid will be very good - but expecting 70-80+ points is a bit much.
