GLENDALE, Ariz. -- The Arizona Coyotes assigned 2015 first-round pick Dylan Strome to the Erie Otters of the junior Ontario Hockey League on Sunday.The 19-year-old Strome had an assist and averaged 13:41 of ice time in seven games with the Coyotes this season. He was drafted third overall.Dylan has made exceptional progress and continues to make strides to being an elite center in this league, Coyotes general manager John Chayka said. At this point in time we felt it was best for his development to get him back playing in junior, but his future in the NHL is very bright.Because Strome still has junior eligibility, he isnt allowed to play in the Coyotes farm system.Last season, he had 37 goals and 74 assists in 56 regular-season games for Erie.

I crumbled to my knees, literally. I knew it was only by Gods grace that I survived that night, said Racquel, who described the aftermath as unimaginable. I had to learn to walk again. I had severe nerve damage in my left leg and broke my femur bone. There were days when I couldnt get out of bed nor did I want to get out of bed. But I knew I had to be strong for my three beautiful kids. And thats when I felt Will the most, Racquel said.His strength, his determination, his commitment to being the best. Failure was never an option for my husband. ... Through my darkest days of my life, Will gave me so much. He instilled so much in me and he showed me how to be strong. And he always told me, Rocky, you can do this. Will, you will always be a part of me. And you always told me to shine my light for the world to see. Well here I am. Im shining my light on your behalf. ... But were here. You made it. You made it to the Saints Hall of Fame in your first year of eligibility. I know you are wearing that black and gold No. 91 in heaven. We celebrate you today and always. I love you Will. Congratulations baby.
