The Blackhawks have had a lot of departures this past off-season including trading away two forwards, Alex DeBrincat which disrupted the fan base, and Kirby Dach. The Blackhawks also didn't re-sign many player and lost them to free agency, that lengthy lists looks similar to this:
Players lost due to not-resigning:
�Dylan Strome - Signed in Washington
�Henrik Borgstrom - signed in Washington
�Kevin Lankinen - signed in Nashville
�Dominik Kubalik - signed in Detroit
That is just a solid chunk of the list, more names like Calvin De Haan and other prospects who never panned out were also not re-signed.
One that hurt the most, and drew a lot of confusion was forward Dylan Strome not being re-signed by Kyle Davidson. Strome fit in perfectly centering Patrick Kane and is coming off a career best season points wise. Strome had many good friendships in Chicago, and is still very young at the age of 25, but I guess that did not fulfill the Blackhawks rebuild plan.
Strome was quickly picked up by the Washington Capitals as he was deemed one of the best free agent centerman available.
In Strome's first game with the Capitals, he buried two goals, check them out below.
