One had to wait a little bit longer than the other to grace the NHL draft stage at the Coyotes' summon, but the development plan that has winger Max Domi poised to land in the NHL this fall more than two years after he was selected 12th overall could be the same outlook for center Dylan Strome.
A third-overall selection this past weekend, Strome's ranking is certainly warranted.
The 18-year-old led the Ontario Hockey League in scoring with 129 points — 45 of which were goals — and he oozed creativity and productivity while racking up 40 multi-point games with Erie.
