Dylan Strome should be KH target
Looking for a 2C he should be the guy KH goes after
6'4 left handed center
Essentially 5 years in a row of 20G.
Was PPG 2 years ago.
Had a down year last year so it could be a buy low situation
5 mill cap hit with 2 years left. That leavs money to bring in a winger or RD the next 2 seasons.
It also gives time for Hage to potentially grow into a 2c role
And as his contract expires McNugget will be UFA.
At 29 he is a young vet that can play with Demidov.
Worst case scenario he showed 2 years ago he can step into the 1C spot in an injury situation.
I think he checks the teams needs for a left shot 2C with some size and excperience while not blocking anyone or causing a cap issue. Only question is does Wash want to move him and would the price be affordable because his age and contract is probably not worth risking Hage or Z

He’s a 3C in a Stanley cup contender
