Friedman: Hawks have made Dylan Strome available for trade

[LeProspector]

DeAngelo for Strome?

DeAngelo for Strome?

I’ve seen this offer a couple times and from a Blackhawks perspective this has got be an overpayment from the Rangers, right? Is there something about deangelo I’m missing?

 

[LEAFANFORLIFE23]

I could see Dubas being interested, Spezza is old and will need to replaced soon, and Strome is young enough that in 5 years when Tavares isn't Tavares anymore Strome can be the #2 center as he looks to be developing into that now.

Assuming the cap remains the same or even drops how does Toronto fit Strome in on his next contract?

Dubas would be insane. A slow, defensively challenged C, who will want money after coming off his ELC, is the last thing the Leafs need.

Wouldn’t be the first time he made that his target...

No, Rangers right side defence is all but set for the foreseeable future with Trouba and Fox. Rangers have made a financial commitment to Trouba and Fox is younger and better.
it’s likely an overpayment but DeAngelo is the likely odd man out in New York so they’ll likely trade from a position of strength (Right shot D-men) in order to get a similar aged/younger forward in return.

The right side having great depth doesn't mean DeAngelo for Strome is an even trade. I wouldn't consider it honestly.

Thats very generous of you to offer the Rangers to take a bad value deal because of personnel reasons, but I don't think any GM thinks this way. Teams try to maximize value. If DeAngelo has more value than Strome, and he definitely does, it's going to cost more than Strome to trade for DeAngelo.

Maybe selling high? His breakout reminds me of Gustafsson, although Gus was 2 years older during his 17 goal, 60 point season. I think DeAngelo is very good offensively but I don't think he's suddenly going to turn into Shea Weber and be a consistent 15+ goal scorer from the backend either. With that said, he is the better player.

Dylan strome is not a good Hockey player

 

[TheKrebsCycle]

Great hands, terrible wheels. Has he played centre or wing for the most part this season?

Centre.

False.

 

[TeddyBare]

This guy had some insane comparisons from the draft

I'll bet he'll be able to live off his OHL scoring totals, and draft position pedigree in his valuation around the league for awhile.

 

[Pavel Buchnevich]

It's amazing how many people completely ignore points, as if they don't directly influence the results of games.

On a team with Trouba (a 50 point scorer in the NHL) and Fox (a player with a great offensive reputation), DeAngelo is our most talented offensive defenseman. He's significantly more talented offensively than Trouba.

Read my lips,don’t want another d man.We need scoring.How about a lw.

FWIW, Friedman walked back his comments on the Blackhawks podcast.

I think Strome would be out of Torontos price point, salary wise, last 2 seasons he has 15 more points than Nylander, would Chicago take Nylander in a trade, Nylander and a late pick perhaps.

 

[poolparty98]

ok ok

Dylan strome is not a good Hockey player

He is far from a perfect player agreed, hes a decent 2nd liner and most likely a 3rd line guy, hes a centre so that adds value, offensively he he ok not spectacular, Nylander is a comparable player, Strome has 15 more points than him last two seasons, both scream , meh Maybe Chicago would take a pick snd Nylander for Strome. Thats the kind of player your gonna get for Strome, so while i disagree that hes not good at hockey, i do agree that the return would be not much,

Leafs wouldn't do that, Nylander is basically a lock for 60 plus points (had 59 in 68 games this year) and he has great chemistry with both our top centers. Strome to the Leafs isn't happening

A lock, Hmm both same age and Strome has outscored him last two yrs, i just mentioned Nylander as a comparable but you could take any 2-3rd liner who can score, every team in nhl has those guys, my point was you ain’t getting much for Strome in trade, it would be a guy like Nylander

Nylander missed the first 2 months last year from a contract dispute lol. Despite that he has more goals this year than Strome has the past 2 years combined. Also, he scored 60 points in the 2 season before Strome was even in the league

Just wondering why you are focused on "2 years". Why didn't you say "last 3 seasons" or "this season"?

We know the answer.
