Confirmed Trade: [WPG/PIT] Luke Schenn for 2026 2nd round pick and 2027 4th round pick

[gojetsgo]

What a horrendous overpay by Winnipeg- - a 2nd AND a 4th for the washed up hack Luke Schenn.

I’m so thankful that Toronto finally has a competent GM who wouldn’t make such a ridiculous overpay like that.

didn't your gm just pay a 1st for laughten

 

[AtlantaWhaler]

Ha...Trotz can't get of his own way. What an embarrassment.

 

[Toby Flenderson]

Dubas is cooking. Basically turning Beauvllier and Bunting into Novak and 2 2nds is excellent.

Now that Rantanen is dealt maybe the winger market opens up more but feels like Rakell might stay at this point. If not hoping for a 2026 1st+

 

[Johnny HFBOARDS]

Fine we got a bottom D man thats better than our current 6-7th man. But to pay a 2nd and 4th it's time to cut the phone cord for the rest of the day on Chevy.

 

[PensandCaps]

Dubas has been racking up picks since last summer.

 

[BHD]

At least he's getting picks.

 

[Gnashville]

I'd be pissed if I was Nashville.

The fans are but Trotz and Management knew Pittsburgh was going to flip Schenn for something.

 

[Andreas Ferrari]

If this keeps Stanley out of the lineup, most Jet fans will be happy.

I hope I get a refund for my Pittsburgh Penguins Schenn jersey

If you're 6'2" and 220lbs I'll give you $3.00 and an expired KFC coupon.

No salary retained.

It will likely keep Colin Miller out, not Stanley. Schenn is RHD.

Guess they assumed they'd get less for Schenn. Novak + 2nd is a lot for Bunting.

Bunting should've been negative value

Someone said the Penguins intended to keep Schenn but he told them he wanted to go to a contender.

 

[bossram]

Absolutely demented seller's market. Dubas got a crooked return for this.

Trotz really played himself this year. Yikes. Out of his depth.

 

[wej20]

Bunting should've been negative value

Why?

 

[JKG33]

Why?

Overpaid, undisciplined player

1st for 2 years at 1.5M is pretty good tbh

You failed to mention the 2026 fourth round pick which Trotz will never get to use

 

[Jared Dunn]

I am quite unhappy that Montreal didn't trade Savard seeing this return

 

[PhilJets]

Wcome to Peg City

Toronto hasn't had a competent general manager since the 60s.

I don’t know what is worse here, him admitting that he turned down a better pick for Schenn because “a late 3rd is worse than a high 4th” or that he could only get a late 3rd when the Penguins got a 2nd and 4th.

 

[SEALBound]

Hey Nashville fans, all kidding aside - I'm sorry you have to deal with Trotz. Looking at the recent string of trades, it's actually quite tough to rationalize.

He actually said this

Didn't he say he had to throw him in to get rid of Novak? Did he WANT to get rid of Novak and did he have questionable value?

The only thing I can rationalize there is - "If I get the early 4th instead of the late 3rd, I'm not moving back that many picks AND I get to move Novak for a player I want"

 

[Turin]

He actually said this

Am I missing context or does Trotz not know that a low 3rd is still earlier than a high 4th.. what am I reading?
