Quoting: Stan_Bowman
That’s debatable, KK is a couple years younger than Strome but that’s the only place he has him beat. Strome has a better Cap hit, drives offense much better, and has a better history of production. Not sure about faceoffs, but I don’t rate them extremely highly in any case.
Im a habs Fans and i think its pretty much on par
KK has value dont get me wrong but he's no better a Center then Strome
But Strome is a MUCH Superior Winger then KK by a country mile
KK only gets a 1st and a 3rd on OS's
Strome gets a 1st in most situations even if they are conditional
I dont think anyone expected KK to get that offer , even i didnt
But that said i wouldnt have been alright giving him up without an over pay
I think if you can find a deal with TBL to bring Killorn on in a package for Strome that you could get that 1st and 3rd if not more
They're in Cap hell and you offer them a Strome and the cap to re-sign him i think they'll happily pay
Plus there's upside in having Killorn-Johnson back together to so its not like you're taking a cap dump just exploiting TBL cap situation
