Tough times are ahead for the franchise and they are selling off whatever they can. Schenn brings a boatload of experience and playoff pedigree and is the perfect player for a contending team. A huge bonus to his game is his physical presence and his shutdown ability. In addition, he thrives on being a steady third pair and killing penalties. However, these are qualities you look towards when trying to win the Stanley Cup. Guys like Schenn are impact players that get it done by doing the little things. In addition to that, a huge kicker is his cap hit of $850k makes him an appetizing acquisition. <\/span><\/p>\n<h3 class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">Teams That Could Make The Trade<\/span><\/h3>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">As previously discussed, <a href=\"https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/hockey\/2023\/01\/26\/nhl-rumours-luke-schenn-trade\/\" target=\"_self\">Schenn is a trade target for the Boston Bruins<\/a>, but they are not the only team. Multiple playoff-calibre hockey teams competing for a championship are in on the veteran defensemen. The next teams that are listed to be landing spots are the <a href=\"https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/hockey\/category\/flames\/\" target=\"_self\">Calgary Flames<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/hockey\/category\/stars\/\" target=\"_self\">Dallas Stars<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/hockey\/category\/lightning\/\" target=\"_self\">Tampa Bay Lightning<\/a>, and <a href=\"https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/hockey\/category\/vegas-golden-knights\/\" target=\"_self\">Vegas Golden Knights<\/a>. <\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">A Luke Schenn trade makes sense for these teams. Schenn already has won a cup in Tampa, and they&#8217;ve always managed to add depth at the deadline. He would make for the perfect player under <a href=\"https:\/\/www.hockey-reference.com\/players\/s\/sutteda01.html?utm_medium=linker&amp;utm_source=lastwordonsports.com&amp;utm_campaign=2023-02-02_hr\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Darryl Sutter<\/a> because he is physical, blocks shots, and is big. Dallas could use his experience for a deep playoff run.
