"Schenn, 34, has served as Blues captain for the last three seasons. He has 12 goals and 16 assists in 61 games for St. Louis. His 16:41 in average ice time is his lowest since the 2013-14 season, while his 1.7 points per 60 minutes average was his lowest since 2010-11."
"Durability is a key piece to Schenn's portfolio. From the 2022-23 season through last year, Schenn played in all 82 regular-season games for the Blues. He also helped the team win its only Stanley Cup in 2019."
"Schenn was traded between two teams going in opposite directions. The Blues are sellers entering a retool, having come close to dealing star defenseman Colton Parayko to the Buffalo Sabres before he used his trade protection to reject the deal. The Islanders are third in the Metro Division with 75 points in 63 games."
The New York Islanders acquired 34-year-old Brayden Schenn, the St. Louis Blues captain, in a trade deadline deal. The Islanders sent Jonathan Drouin, a 2026 first-round pick, a third-round pick, and goalie prospect Marcus Gidlof to St. Louis. Schenn recorded 12 goals and 16 assists in 61 games this season with declining production metrics. He carries a $6.5 million cap hit through 2027-28 and waived his no-trade clause to approve the move. Known for durability, Schenn played all 82 games for three consecutive seasons and helped the Blues win the 2019 Stanley Cup. The Islanders, currently third in the Metro Division, added Schenn to bolster their playoff positioning.
