I’d be looking at more of a Connor Murphy in a deal from Chicago imo
And that would not involve giving up on Patrick...fo 1.5 years of Murphy who we would have to expose in the ED.

Hawks fans...what has gone on with Strome?

72 point pace 2 years ago
54 pint pace last year
31 point pace this year


SHIT....just noticed Strome only has 2 non PP points this year!!! And has 7 on the PP. WTF???

Hawks, needing a handful of rookies to play a bunch of minutes on D this season, probably shouldn’t move on from their most solid D not named Keith.

He is a skill player who doesn’t fit in a 3C role and the Hawks have Dach and Toews... or did before this season. He also needs the right linemates because his skating (maybe read effort... unsure) is suspect.

ok...but with Toews out this year....he should be a top 2 C, right? But 2 ES points on the year????

And if that's the case, we won't do well in Philly because Couts and Hayes will 100% play above him...and we still have Frost knocking on the door next year.

Strome to Philly really doesn't fill any need.

he's had a concussion for a good part of the year and recently just came back

He played 19 games before the concussion...and had 2 ES points....8 points in total That's a 35 point pace...with only 9 being at ES.

So if he needs to play in a top 6 role, well with Toews out this year, he had that opportunity or was playing in that role and it didn't translate to points.

So did 2 years ago he play with Kane the whole time...and since then his time with Kane has diminished....and his points follow? That seems logical.

No absolutely not you’re right I just meant if I were to make a trade with Chicago it would be for Murphy and not strome

The Blackhawks signed an MVP, F.A. player from Europe named Pius Suter.
He has passed D. Strome on Chicago's center depth chart.

Suter is tied in goals for NHL rookie scoring with Kaprisov. Pius Suter has filled in as first line center with Toews out. Suter is also versatile enough and has played third line center. D. Strome is a second line center, only. I don't see Strome EVER being a fit when Toews & Dach return.

Nothing wrong with Dylan Strome being a 2C on a budget contract. Other teams could use his net front presence and size. Good soft hands and nice hockey IQ

I know this.

My point is that with Toews and Dach out this year, Strome is still in a top 6 role....and has not produced. He has 2 ES points.

Last year he had the excuse of Toews and Dach being at C ahead of him. This year neither of them are playing and it's only Suter.

So the question isn't about Chicago having the depth to move him for next year. It's why the hell has he dropped to 2ES points while still playing 2nd line C behind only Suter. That will be a question every team will want to know if trading for him. 2 ES points is not a #2 C.

Philly needs a D ... Sure Murphy could fit the bill but who do the Hawks get in return?
JVR , Zayde Wisdom + 1st for Strome + Murphy

not sure why the flyers do this. Strome is not a good 3rd line center and that is the role he would need to play for the Flyers.
Not saying Patrick is a good 3rd line center, but I think the upside is better and it's more of a "the devil you know" situation,

I can't see the Blackhawks trading Murphy even for a first round pick.

D. Strome is a lottery ticket for Chicago since he's cost controlled thru 2021-22.
Might as well keep him and see what happens next year.

It makes more sense for the Blackhawks to package C. Soderberg and Calvin da Haan and retain half salary and see if those two can return a first round pick.

If that's not a good fit for the Flyers perhaps somewhere else it might work.

nope...not trading a 1st for a Dman we would expose in the ED

Flyers will definitely gamble on Patrick in place of Strome

2 iffs centers to be frank and both possibly needing change of scenery. So from original post it ain't worst suggestion to be sure.

When in doubt take younger and cheaper center in Patrick.
