Report: Coyotes' Strome a likely healthy scratch for opener

Arizona Coyotes rookie Dylan Strome may have to wait a little longer to make his NHL debut.

According to Craig Morgan of Arizona Sports, the 19-year-old, who skated as an extra at practice Friday, is unlikely to be in the lineup when the team opens its season Saturday against the Philadelphia Flyers.

The third overall pick in 2015 spent the past season in the OHL, recording 111 points in 56 games.

The Coyotes are expected to dress two other rookie centers in Strome's absence, namely Christian Dvorak and Laurent Dauphin, who played eight games with Arizona last season.
