Rumor: Leafs interested in Luke Schenn

[DudeWhereIsMakar]

Full circle if true.

 

[Vancouver_2010]

first round pick

But seriously though, maybe 3rd or fourth round pick should do it

 

[Filthy Dangles]

Other than Hughes, the only other Canucks defensemen worth his contract. He plays really well with Hughes, is signed for 1 more year at 850k, and is on a team in need of more RD, not less. Since his value is higher to Vancouver than his trade value, I don't see a point in trading him unless Vancouver acquires an upgrade on RD in another trade. He can't be worth more than a 3rd or 4th rounder so what's the point if you're just opening up a hole on D.

VAN should be stockpiling picks, especially since they don't have their own 2nd and 3rd this year. Sell high and take the 3rd

This made sense, that's why it has never been done when Benning is in charge, hopefully the new regime will do the right thing this time around.

 

[Paddys Pub]

Toronto can sniff around all they want.
Doesn’t mean he will get traded.
He is a great fit with Hughes, and super cheap. Why would we trade him?
I’m keeping him over a 3rd for sure

 

[Donuts]

leafs 1st

 

[Gstank]

So NIck Foligno got a 1st and a 4th so Schenn should get a 1st and a 3rd. Would rather keep him as he is a useful player and plays well with Hughes

 

[Gaylord Q Tinkledink]

I've been thinking he would make a decent Bogosian replacement.

Nice Bogo replacement

Leafs trying to downgrade to make it fair for the rest of the league ?

The last time the Leafs were really interested in Luke Schenn, it didn’t work out so well.

Funny enough, the general perception of Luke Schenn is still damaged from his time as a Leaf. But since his Toronto/Philly days, he's been just fine.

Leafs interested in Luke Schenn:

leafs 1st

Yeah, make it two 1sts.

He's a changed man, baby. He means it this time.

As a fit alongside Rasmus Sandin, it would probably be an ideal add.... especially with his cap hit for next year.

To me, the concern is whether he can move the puck well enough. Ideally the Leafs would want somebody with a better first pass, that could give them flexibility to pair with Muzzin. Schenn would have to basically be a strict-Sandin partner.

To the bolded....he can't.

 

[M2Beezy]

Hes such a useful player for us and on a cheap contract on a team full of awful contracts. Hes a great #5/6 and most of us hated the signing when it happend last off season

I see no reason to trade him accept for a ridiculous overpayment which I dont think any team should really be doing

I’m a Yotes fan. I remember.

 

[Holls Blackmail]

Where would he fit on the Marlies?

Completely agree. A second I take in a heartbeat, a third I’m neutral, but less I would rather keep him

 

[JAK]

Leafs fans are certain they'll win the cup, so their first is basically a sixth rounder last time the Leafs won a cup.

so Leafs should trade their first and second for Luke Schenn.

 

[Cogburn]

Completely agree. A second I take in a heartbeat, a third I’m neutral, but less I would rather keep him

This is about my level of interest in trading him too.

If we get a second offered, somehow, we take that and run. If we get a third, eh, it depends on who else we trade off or pick up.

Leafs pick him up as a #7, or a guy who is needed if the series gets physical. As long has he can move the puck on short-passes to Sandin, Sandin can get the puck up the ice. This isn't a starting lineup trade, it's depth. Probably Dermott for Schenn type move.

 

[AHLdepth]

Completely agree. A second I take in a heartbeat, a third I’m neutral, but less I would rather keep him

And what's even moreso is that for less than a 3rd I'd hang onto a useful player and still be happy to move him next deadline for a 4th

 

[Ciao]

Seriously, i think Luke Schenn is much too slow to be of much use.

I absolutely love his character and what he represents, but I hope his playing time with the Leafs has passed long ago.

It got them JVR it worked out perfectly

 

[LEAFANFORLIFE23]

It make sense that they want to add depth on defense but I need something more credible than Taj
