Rumor: Dylan Strome is available (per Elliotte Friedman)

[Pertti]

Strome for 2m pipe dream, willingly admit.

4-5m for RFA is not playing hard ball which almost everyone(inc. Me) wants SB to do.

And what is the minimum price for trade?

Accordint to capfriendly $2,113,717 - $4,227,437(AAV) compensation is 2 round pick, which I think is good value for Strome.

On the latest Blackhawks Talk podcast, Friedman walked back on his initial statement regarding Strome. Essentially stating that he isnt untouchable, but that the hawks are not actively looking to move him at all.

that’s pretty awful actually.

we have turned a 20th overall pick in Schmaltz into Regula and a 2nd Strome would still get a first

Which is probably what most people thought was the case in the first place. Way to get those clicks Elliot!

What an ass. He keeps taking L’s when it comes to the Hawks

It's so unnecessary too. He obviously has good sources, but for some reason comes up with shit out of thin air and runs with it for no reason.

The worst is when people cite his 31 thoughts as confirmed news that teams are talking when he is just throwing shit at all the wall and seeing if it sticks

His 31 thoughts might as well be compost at this point.

EF has always chased clicks with how he phrases things.

 

[RememberTheRoar]

Basically, this whole thread is pointless and I’m frankly kind of glad. I think the Hawks should keep Strome, but play hardball with him and get that AAV down

He’s an imperfect 3C, but I don’t see the next Dave Bolland walking through the door anytime soon.

 

[Kevin Musto]

All these headlines probably gave Stromer a spook

Dude, we just signed Barratt a week or two ago.

He’s Dave Bolland?

I do think there might have been something to the Blackhawks putting that out there to let Strome and his agent know if he doesn’t play ball in contract negotiations, they’re not afraid to move him.

 

[CallMeShaft]

He’s Dave Bolland?

He's Bolland-ish.

 

[Rick C137]

I was gonna post the GIF of Barratt doing the cry baby face to Lindgren in the penalty box, then immediately getting out of the box destroying him open ice and puts the puck bar down. But apparently that GIF is gone now.

One of my favorite sequences I’ve seen in a college hockey game in awhile. Barratt can be a bit of a rat. For sure not a fun player to play against in a lot of the same ways Bolland was.

Barrett has Bolland/Shaw in his game. It is fun to watch.

Strome will be rockfords captain next year. Him and Teply on the same line.

Alternate captain*

Do you give Strome a one year deal then and see whether Barratt is a real deal Bolland-like 3C? If he his, you still own Strome’s RFA rights next offseason and can move them

 

[Mrfenn92]

Question for you fellas. How much time in Rockford do you think Barratt will need?
I've been able to watch him a few times and his playing style to me seems like he could secure a spot on the hawks from day 1.

No matter what, a bridge deal is the right answer. Whether it be a year or two or three, who knows.

But Barratt and I'll add in Kurashev, are both potentially capable of being a good middle six center.

He’s Dave Bolland?

They share a lot of the same traits.
