6.5M for a guy who would be our 3C, it's not gonna work.
Surely this sounded funnier in your head....in other news, the Detroit Red Wings announce that a signed Steve Yzerman jersey is available...Leafs said to be very interested...
Just don't like his age/contract.He can play wing too. He’s the exact player a cup contender should be adding. A tough 2 way player.
Interesting. I can see the Leafs being surprisingly willing to step up and take the risk. The "intangible"/ playoff value is through the roof- and even at just a 2C/LW level he changes he potentially changes the complexion of the team. I would see him at 3C with Nylander on one side- that's a matchup nightmare.Honestly, I don't know. Going into the season, Schenn certainly had negative value. He's bounced back and has improved offensively and defensively, but he's also playing with Holloway and Kyrou, so that's a big help. His expected goals for and against have bounced back to his pre decline days, but how much of that is him or linemates driven? Can he sustain it for the rest of his contract?
That’s the spirit! Let’s make a deal.Interesting. I can see the Leafs being surprisingly willing to step up and take the risk.

If he falls off cliff the buyout after next season is like 1.3m on a 100+ million cap- who cares.
Yep, if he is able to maintain the pace that he's had this season, the last year or 2 is a lot easier to handle with the increasing cap. And there might even be teams that want him for his cap hit at the end of his deal when his $ owed is a lot less.Interesting.

Reaves + 2ndAs a Lightning fan I hope they sell the farm for Schenn
