Stralman was with the Bruins on a PTO and turned it into a one-year deal. Stralman, who had 23 points (8G / 15A) in 74 games with the Coyotes last season, has been skating with the injured Matt Grzelcyk in practice, suggesting he could start the season as the seventh defenseman.

Stralman missed four games while in COVID-19 protocol but is expected to play Wednesday in New Jersey. Stralman will likely be back on a pairing with Jakob Chychrun, who is a game-time decision. The veteran defenseman has two goals and four assists (six points) in 29 games this season.

The Coyotes have acquired Anton Stralman, Vladislav Kolyachonok and 2024 2nd round pick from the Panthers for a 2023 7th round pick.

Stralman has one-year left at $5.5M AAV and moving him frees up space that the Panthers will use to re-sign Sam Reinhart. Stralman will join Jakob Chychrun, Ilya Lyubushkin and Shayne Gostisbehere as the only NHL regulars on the Coyotes' blueline right now.
