With the NHL trade deadline set to hit on Friday, the Leafs are looking to bolster their centre depth. According to Sportsnet’s Elliotte Friedman, it appears that one of the options they are considering is Schenn, who currently has 12 goals and 37 points in 61 games this season.

Will Blues captain Brayden Schenn be traded, and if so, will it be to the Toronto Maple Leafs? Let's look at the fit and what it would cost.

Arthur Staple of The Athletic: The New York Islanders face the reality their season is basically over. Lou Lamoriello watched the New York Rangers convert a few quality chances into a 5-1 win. Now, the Islanders are six points from the Eastern Conference basement. The loss placed them seven points out of a playoff spot at press time.

Brayden Schenn is set to play his 1,000th regular-season NHL game when he and the St. Louis Blues visit the Washington Capitals on Thursday night.

It would be difficult for fans of the St. Louis Blues to imagine life without their captain Brayden Schenn. After all, he was instrumental in the franchise’s first and only Stanley Cup victory to date in 2019.

There are reasons to think Schenn would be a good fit with Toronto, but is he the best fit ahead of next week's trade deadline? Maybe not.
