Arizona Coyotes: Dylan Strome Concerns Unwarranted
Instead of making his NHL debut on Saturday night, Dylan Strome was a healthy scratch. This raised concerns about the prospect in the fan base and around the league, but should it?
For Dylan Strome, the Arizona Coyotes’ thrilling opening night victory was likely a bitter pill to swallow.
While fellow rookies Lawson Crouse, Jakob Chychrun, and Christian Dvorak celebrated on the ice, Strome watched the proceedings from the press box.
His moment never arrived.
Strome’s absence has raised questions about the youngster’s readiness for the NHL.
It also surfaced concerns that he might not be all he was cracked up to be as the 3rd overall pick.
Those worries seem unwarranted, at least for now.
