Anyone interested in a PPG center that’s on a great contract? 3 years to go at 5 per. Only downside is he’ll be your slowest forward and is softer than babyshit. Hockey trades only, no futures.
 
He’s not a perfect player but in an environment where 3/4 of the league needs a top six center, a 28 year-old center who had 82 points in 82 games and then 11 points in 9 playoff games and makes a mind-numbingly stupid $5 million per year for the rest of his prime should and would draw tremendous interest.

That contract itself is gold. The amount of analytical value there is tremendous. Compare that to what $5 million will buy you in free agency this summer and how much longer you will be on the hook for whatever you are dishing out. There’s no chance the Caps should deal him unless they are getting a haul or an all-star level player with a good contract back.

Garbage thread, and I won’t stand for the Strome slander. Strome has been terrific and is great value. He is not soft and yeah he’s not the fastest but his IQ is ridiculously high. He’s like an 8/10 version of Backstrom.

I thought Carberry did Strome a disservice against Carolina keeping him with Ovechkin. Ovechkin clearly couldn’t keep up with the pace of play.

He also absolutely loves being a Cap and he’s loved in DC. Interesting post by someone who has never posted on HFCaps before.
 
Another team sick of Strome’s shit? Gee couldn’t see this one coming.
OP speaks for literally no fan other than himself in Washington. He is loved in DC and has established himself as part of the core. I know he disappointed in other places but he’s been everything we could have asked for and more since he got here.
 
If you want to sell him as a PPG player, then your expectation coming back is probably close to a PPG player, and you're not going to get that. So you should probably keep the player on the good contract putting up points for you.

Washington took a forward where many thought it would be a step backwards. It's tough to replace that with a 1st, middle 6 and prospect. You need something great coming back and I'm not sure Strome in a swap will get that. I get selling him at his highest, but even if it's not replicated, it's probably more valuable to keep him for now than look at futures if the goal is to repeat the great season.

I highly doubt the offer involving Matthews is one Toronto would actually make.
 
What would it cost for Dylan Strome? 1st, 2nd and B prospect?

That's the cost of PPG C on a 5m contract?

I'll take 2 more for Washington.

Strome isn't available unless you offer a prime-aged better center in return.
