[Trade] D. Strome to Chicago

From the Coyotes Twitter feed:

OFFICIAL: #Coyotes Acquire Schmaltz from Chicago in Exchange for Perlini and Strome https://t.co/u5b5avWFG4

Wow. I feel like Chicago wins that one.

[ericdaoust]

I'm not sure anyone wins this trade

Trade a Strome month!

As a Hawks fan I think I like this. At least it gives the Hawks more story lines.

The team receiving the strome always loses..

Trade a Strome month!

You are correct - lol - Do the Strome's have attitude issues?

[BealestreetTyrant]

I wonder if Schmaltz takes Perlinis spot on the top line?

Personally, I think this trade is a head-scratcher for the Coyotes. I know Chayka probably fell in love with Schmaltz's puck possession, but that's a steep price of potential young talent that they're giving up in return. Especially if Strome pans out and recaptures his OHL Erie Otters magic with DeBrincat.

Skating issues more like. Just can't keep up in today's NHL.

This could be great for DeBrincat, him and Strome are buds and had ridiculous chemistry together in junior. We might see a DeBrincat-Strome-Kane line that could show a lot of promise. Plus with Schmaltz gone it's one less guy in his way for PP1 time.

Almost any way you slice it this move has a lot of potential for us Cat owners.

[Roto Doctor]

The junior connection with DeBrincat and also Schmaltz was RFA after the season.
Hawks probably did not want to get caught up in $$$.

It's either a trade that completely changes the future of Chicago, or it's a trade that's completely forgotten in 3 months. It's prolly the latter.....check that, completely forgotten in 3days.

The Strome brothers may set a record for trades by siblings. What a couple of dissapointing kids. This guy went after McDavid and Eichel and ahead of Marner. Yikes. Arizona may need an overhaul in their scouting staff. First Domi now Strome.

Wow, I looked at the 2014-15 OHL scoring leaders:
D.Strome – 129pts
Marner – 126pts
McDavid – 120pts
Blandisi – 112pts (126PIMs!)
Dvorak – 109pts
Labanc – 107pts
DeBrincat – 104pts
Mangiapane – 104pts
Domi – 102pts
Bertuzzi – 98pts

Holy did Yotes scouting core miss something in Strome’s game that wouldn’t translate to the NHL. How different the NHL would be if they picked Marner over Strome. Leafs either would have picked Strome or Hanifin, Leafs would have him in the top line, Nylander would be signed, Hamilton wouldn’t be in Carolina, Yotes would have a top player. Woah.
