I cant believe this guy keeps getting contracts and traded for. I guess it just goes to show if you are a big RHD who can skate at all you will get a lifetime job in the NHL.

He was a big part of the win over Tampa

Very under rated IMO

However, I wouldn't give him more than 1M

He's a decent RHD for a usual 800k/year. Also arguably Toronto's 2nd best defenceman in the post season

 

[TMLegend]

No way he gets a longer term deal. He's a bottom pair defensemen, arguably fringe at that.

1.25x2 is my guess. Any longer or any more money I'd pass as a Leafs fan.

1.5-2 for 2 years

Right, but the dude is constantly in demand at trade deadlines and now there is talk of him getting a multi-year deal. Hes a 6th D who is getting old, thats silly.

 

[Phion Keneuf]

He deserves at least $2M based on last year.

He was clearly the Leafs 2nd best D in the post season, and played most of the year on the top pairing (beside Hughes and Rielly)

If he really wanted to cash out I could see him landing $3M , someone will pay it for a big physical RHD who can play anywhere.

 

[AHLdepth]

If you haven't seen him lately, then you really have missed the rare example of a guy bringing it back from the brink of nothingness. He found a niche he could fill, worked hard at it, and has become later in his career a genuinely very useful piece. He absolutely deserves some security, and absolutely deserves a raise. Obviously not anything ridiculous, but 3/4 x 1.5/1.75 seems right, and I wouldn't think twice about some GM signing off on a bad deal that has his AAV starting with a 2.

The guy has made it reasonably clear that he just wants some stability going forward, and with this potentially being his last contract depending on the term, he's right to want to get all he can here.

There is no reason he shouldn't get a 2 year deal.

Why?

He brings physicality and stability to a bottom pairing D. Most teams in the league would take him. In fact, most already have.

I wonder why he keeps getting traded. But more because I think a team would want him on a bottom pairing for a few years. He is a leader and doesn't back down from anyone.

 

[MisterT]

I expect him to be offered the money that Holl was getting. Too much but better spent than on the Black Holl.

 

[shortfuze]

Give him a similar deal to Bogosian. 3 years - 4.5 million.

 

[HockeyVirus]

IDK he was awesome for the Leafs. I would easily replace Holl with him at the same salary. A depth player who can add an element we lack, likely doesn't play all 82 games but is important in the games that matter.

except he's not useless, he hits like a demon, can grind forechecks to a halt.

having said that he's a weird player where he shouldn't be making a lot but what he brings is really useful.. I'd give him 1.5 for three year s to stay...anything more is no thanks

You have no idea what you are talking about. Schenn is pretty much the perfect 3rd pair RD.

 

[Leafs87]

This is what I hoped for. 3 years at 1.5-1.75

 

[Stealth JD]

6-years, $900k/yr.
LOL

 

[LeafalCrusader]

Holl deal 2 million per x3?

 

[I am Canadian]

1.5M x 3

 

[Tufted Titmouse]

I'd like to see 1m x 3.

 

[rojac]

6-years, $900k/yr.
LOL

Actually, why not? $900K cap hit for Schenn while he's still useful would be great. And once he's no longer useful, you can bury the whole deal in the minors. In fact any thing up to a $1.15M cap hit would be fully buryable.

 

[JRichard]

Underrated. +9 with Canucks meanwhile OEL -24, Myers -16.
Yeah not some fancy X%/ stats but Christ…

 

[Xerloris]

I wouldn't mind him on the Blues. Can take turns sitting in the press box with Bortuzzo.

 

[NuckLuck]

Every team should want him. Issue is now age. He is not very fast or mobile and has learned to play within himself, but every year that age and lack of mobility risk increases.

I’d love him back on the Canucks because of this leadership and toughness as a 3RD who can step up higher if needed but I do think he’s getting to the age where “load management” is needed

I’d sign him to 2x1.5 with a NMC so he doesn’t have to uproot his family again.
