The Blackhawks went through a lot of changes last season, but newly minted general manager Kyle Davidson still has many more decisions to make this offseason. One of those decisions is whether the Blackhawks should re-sign the player who appeared most often in trade rumors: Dylan Strome.
With Strome now a restricted free agent, Davidson will need to figure out if the 2015 No. 3 overall pick should be kept or allowed to walk — and reports suggest the young GM is leaning towards the latter.
While it’s understandable that Davidson might want a clean slate when it comes to some of the pending free agents with the Blackhawks, it’s arguably a better idea to keep Strome for a variety of reasons.
