Confirmed with Link: Luke schenn for 2nd ‘26 + 4th ‘27

Schenn would be a nice signing if chevy could pull it off in the summer. He is the definition of solid.
No need... he's already signed through next season at $2.75M. That's perhaps partly why the cost was a bit higher. Having term means that the Jets have the option of trading him at any time between the summer and next TDL to recoup a pick or two, or keeping him for two playoff runs.

Yup, I'm happy to have Luke play to FA. If he's still effective and the Jets have a need, he seems like the type of guy who would re sign.
 
Schenn feels like he could fit on any of our three pairings. Just depends on how we want to use him. Him and Samberg would be a hell of a pure shutdown pairing. Especially against the teams that are more size than speed.

My suspicion is he’s going to primarily be on the third pair but moved on other pairings depending on game situations. I think we’re going to see him play with JM at times in the game for specific reasons especially if we are in a key late game face off situation in our zone for example
 
he and stanley have been brutal. posts earlier mentioned in this thread size and toughness for the POs? sure he brings a bit, what about defensive ability? some quickness/agility? our net-front D has been garbage.

usually i put less onus on a third pair, and as long they're mid it's fine if the top-4 is playing really well, but they've been brutal and a liability in limited minutes! Or an earlier post of the thought of him playing with Morrissey... can't imagine seeing Schenn for 20+ mins.

Schenn looks to me like a guy who was forced to play here against his will. His little push backs in scrums are heartless and meaningless. His play is slow and uninspired. I actually feel sorry for him. Not part of the culture and seems disinterested in the whole thing. Can’t be much fun for him.

Schenn's lack of foot speed is really noticeable in the playoffs. He has no time to make a smart play with the puck so he doesn't. And Stanley does have more room but makes terrible decisions or lacks execution with the puck on his stick, so that pairing simply is a mistake waiting to happen continuously. Why they haven't gone to Fleury/Miller pairing earlier baffles me.

Big Luke arrived as a grizzled vet and playoff warrior who was fair value for the picks and could push erratic, softer D like Miller to the PB and maybe even make a playoff D outta Big Stan.

Now he's on track to end the season as yet another r(elatively expensive) TDL add who managed to slow down the Jets play, make the team worse, and push steady, talented D like Miller to the PB.

Game 7. On the brink. Make your mark, Schenner, and don't Kevin Hayes it.

I would prefer he sit his ass down and make room for the far superior Miller who can actually pass and skate.
 
Stanley - Miller was actually a pretty decent bottom pairing for most of the year

I think the same reason you'll see Helle start tomorrow (even though he shouldnt) is the same reason you'll see Schenn... just the org being loyal to the vets who have paid their dues and established themselves

Zero chance TNSE rips Luke away from his family for months only to sit him

They should be loyal-er to the fans.
 
Jets in this series with Luke Schenn on the ice at 5v5 or Even Strength:
3 GF - 10 GA, -7

Jets without Schenn at 5v5:
8 GF - 8 GA, +0
Jets without Schenn at Even Strength:
10 GF - 8 GA, +2

I hear Buffdog warming up his keyboard to point out I'm using GF in a small sample. Well, it's pretty relevant to the Jets being headed to Game 7. But here are the rest of the numbers:

Jets ESCF%FF%SF%GF-GAxGF%SCF%HDCF%
W/Schenn47%49%46%3-10, -752% 49%47%
w/o Schenn55%55%53%10-8. +260%58%58%

What a complete liability! And that's not even mentioning his terrible penalty differential.

Schenn's net penalties: -6

Entire Jets team net penalties: -7 (so -1 without Schenn).

The best thing about Schenn is the Jets have only given up one goal on the penalty kill when he's been out there and they're 0-5 when he's not on the PK. But since he's personally responsible for nearly 18% of the Jets penalties in this series, it's probably a bit of a wash.

But overall, it's hard to believe how significant a negative impact he's had as a sheltered 3rd pairing defenseman.

I fully expect him to be in the lineup tomorrow because that's how the Jets roll...unable to identify problems and unable to address them.

Yes, that's a small sample lol

But I don't even think we need stats at this point to conclude that Schenn has played like dogshit. The eye test matches that 100%

Chevy needs to surprise him with a PJ tomorrow morning to go visit his family in Nashville for a couple of days lol

I wish...but the Jets seem to have Schenn as their #5. Maybe Stanley comes out.
