Strome Lands with Flames in Deadline Deal

Ryan Strome finally escapes Anaheim's youth movement and heads to Calgary, where the Flames see a right-shot center who can steady their lineup amid the deadline chaos. The 32-year-old vet brings that proven 40-50 point pedigree from his glory days, even if his Ducks stint got derailed by injury and ice-time squeezes. Front offices know Conroy doesn't swing for rentals without term, so this move signals bigger ambitions in a rebuilding pond.
