Strome was recalled to the NHL on March 20, 2018, where he played, and scored, in a game against the Buffalo Sabres on March 21. On January 4, 2018, Strome was selected for the 2018 AHL All-Star Classic Game. Despite this early success, on December 19, 2017, Strome was demoted to the AHL after Arizona's acquisition of Josh Archibald from the Pittsburgh Penguins. He scored his first NHL goal on December 2 in a 5–0 win over the New Jersey Devils. However, he was recalled on November 26 after recording a seven-game point streak with the Roadrunners.
On October 9, 2017, the Coyotes announced Strome was being sent down to the Coyotes' American Hockey League (AHL) affiliate, the Tucson Roadrunners, after going pointless in two games. ĭuring the 2017–18 season, Strome made the Coyotes' final roster out of training camp. On November 20, the Coyotes announced Strome would be sent back to the Erie Otters of the OHL. In his NHL debut, on October 18, 2016, Strome collected his first NHL point. On July 6, 2015, he signed a three-year, NHL entry-level contract with Arizona. Strome was drafted third overall by the Arizona Coyotes in the 2015 NHL Entry Draft. On May 22, 2017, in the Memorial Cup round robin, Strome scored a tournament single-game record seven points (four goals and three assists), leading the Otters to a 12–5 win over the Saint John Sea Dogs. Along with winning the scoring title, Strome set the Otters' team record for most points in a single season, narrowly edging former linemate Connor Brown. Erie teammate and eventual NHL first overall draft pick Connor McDavid (120 points), who missed 21 games, finished third. On March 25, 2015, Strome won the 2015 OHL scoring title (129 points), narrowly beating-out fellow 2015 NHL Entry Draft prospect Mitch Marner (126 points). Strome was drafted second overall by the Ontario Hockey League (OHL)'s Erie Otters in the 2013 OHL Priority Selection, and played with the Otters for four seasons, beginning with the 2013–14 OHL season. Strome started to gain attention as a minor midget hockey player with the Toronto Marlboros of the Greater Toronto Hockey League (GTHL), where he was named the league's Player of the Year for the 2012–13 season.
