Waived: [CHI] F Andreas Athanasiou waived by the Blackhawks (cleared)

[Nogatco Rd]

Savvy move by the Blackhawks to let Dylan Strome walk and sign
AA for 500k less to take his place.

 

[Dan Kelly]

Another former Oiler who just isn't that good despite his good speed !

 

[ManByng]

Yup he's not that good!

 

[Cubs2024wildcard]

Extra bag fries are the best. What a dummy.

Well he's the sharpest spoon in the drawer, so....

The Kyle Davidson era strikes again.

Skating and compete while putting his finger to his lips checking out the dessert cart in the press box.

It’s the little things in life

 

[MMC]

Maybe the Ducks should pick him up

No

 

[mattihp]

Not being able to trade him when at least four teams are looking for a middle six center shows his value, I guess.

 

[Barsky]

If he clears, I kinda hope the Habs can make a trade because I like his speed.

Unless he's lost that.

When, not if

He's not a center.

 

[KeithIsActuallyBad]

I was just reminded that Holland traded two seconds for him.

Yeesh.

They let Strome walk to get Bedard.
They don't get Bedard if they keep Strome

Poor Detroit had AA and Mantha at the same time. The two most wasted talents of the modern era.

 

[That Habs Fan]

If Montreal trades for him and puts him on a line with Anderson we can have two guys who do nothing but skate fast and are big.

Add Kirby Dach and you would have the LOG Line.

Three big, good skaters with the combined hockey IQ of one log.

 

[Macheteops]

He played 9 games had 4 points. The season ended early and had a 4 month break.

He did well enough as an Oiler.

I did say it was a small sample size but I just remember a play or two that Leon put the puck on his stick and AA wasn't even aware until it was too late

AA just seems like a guy you'd throw on the third line to create a bit of offence by himself with his individual skills

If Strome is on the team do they get BEDARD?

 

[WarriorofTime]

Anyone could signed Strome. He was a free agent.
