Dylan Strome, the third overall pick in the 2015 NHL Draft, signed a three-year entry-level contract with the Arizona Coyotes on Monday, the team announced.

The 18-year-old centre led the Ontario Hockey League in scoring last season with 129 points in 68 games. He scored 45 goals for the Erie Otters.

"We are very pleased to sign Dylan to an entry-level contract," said Coyotes general manager Don Maloney in a statement. "Dylan is a very talented player and all he's done his entire career is lead his teams and leagues in scoring and win championships. He will be an important player for us in the future and a key building block for this franchise."

Strome joins Connor McDavid and Jack Eichel as members of the 2015 draft class to sign their first contracts.

TSN Director of Scouting Craig Button provided the following breakdown of Strome prior to the draft.

"Dylan won’t pull you out of your seat for what he does individually but will make you stand up and notice what he does to help the team be successful," Button wrote. "Smart in every area of the game he is defined by substance not flash. An elite, complete centre necessary to winning."
