It's a ploy to get Kane and Toews to ask out and waive their NMCs as they both want to stay in Chicago, for the moment...
Purge
Pissing off Kane and Toews is the most important part of their rebuild.Still makes no sense. Why throw away a valuable asset like Strome just to piss off Kane and Toews?
Strome has lead feet.Find someone who'll take Dvorak, figure out a way to get Strome here, #profit.
No idea what Chicago's doing. It's like they let an internet forum dweller run the organization.
What about Seth Jones, whose $9.5M deal starts next season and 7-more thereafter w full NMC?It's a ploy to get Kane and Toews to ask out and waive their NMCs as they both want to stay in Chicago, for the moment...
I know what's Strome's problem is, it's the same reason he got traded from Phoenix.Strome has lead feet.
Dvorak will draw interest especially amongst Western Conf teams who know him well
Virtually impossible to trade. If he wasn't making close to $10M / year, I'd feel terrible for Jones.What about Seth Jones, whose $9.5M deal starts next season and 7-more thereafter w full NMC?
Kane is UFA after next season so he’s gonzo, now or next deadline
They need the assets they'll get in a trade. Kane leaving for nothing as a UFA would be a disaster for a rebuilding team. Toews at half salary would get a ton too.What about Seth Jones, whose $9.5M deal starts next season and 7-more thereafter w full NMC?

Something is up for sureStill makes no sense to just let Strome go for nothing instead of trading him for picks/prospects. They'd be equally upset if he was traded for non roster assets.
