New reports have revealed that <a href='https://www.nhl.com/oilers/' class='lien_marqueur' target='_blank' rel='noopener'>the Oilers</a> and <a href='https://www.nhl.com/goldenknights/' class='lien_marqueur' target='_blank' rel='noopener'>Golden Knights</a> are very serious about acquiring Brayden Schenn before the trade deadline passes on March 7th. The recent report that the <a href='https://www.sportsnet.ca/nhl/article/nhl-rumour-roundup-blues-brayden-schenn-drawing-trade-interest/' class='lien_marqueur' target='_blank' rel='noopener'>St. Louis Blues are open to trading</a> captain Brayden Schenn, at least to some teams, continues to be a source of ripples as the trade deadline approaches. It seems, according to the Rumor Boyz on 'Spittin' Chiclets', that two big guns are leading the charge in the pursuit of <a href='https://www.nhl.com/blues/player/brayden-schenn-8475170' class='lien_marqueur' target='_blank' rel='noopener'>Schenn</a>: the Edmonton Oilers and the Vegas Golden Knights. OMG, would teams be lining up with packages to get this guy, Ray Whitney says. a warrior, a Stanley Cup champ, a captain, who's signed for three more seasons after this one at $6.5 million... I heard he's rumored to Edmonton and then I also heard Vegas, said Paul Bissonnette. <div align='center' class='pl20 pr20'><blockquote class='twitter-tweet' data-lang='en'><a href='https://twitter.com/spittinchiclets/status/1890065286222762045'> </a></blockquote></div> If either of these suitors can land him, it would greatly increase their chances for a Stanley Cup. Insider <a href='https://x.com/FriedgeHNIC' class='lien_marqueur' target='_blank' rel='noopener'>Elliotte Friedman</a> has even gone so far as to say that if Schenn is traded, he has Vegas written all over him. Friedman also mentioned that the Toronto Maple Leafs are interested, adding to the long list of playoff teams who would welcome Schenn's experience. The Blues are said to be waiting for a huge return for their captain. Every year (the Golden Knights) do something that nobody saw coming, added Whitney. if they all of a sudden at the deadline got Brayden Schenn, that might be the end of me, knowing that Edmonton's gonna have to play him in the second round. <div align='center' class='pl20 pr20'><blockquote class='twitter-tweet' data-lang='en'><a href='https://twitter.com/HockeyDaily365/status/1856523055595430258'> </a></blockquote></div> Although the 33-year-old has had fairly productive stretches with 11 goals and 21 assists (32 points in 56 games) this year, following three consecutive seasons with 20 goals, his leadership, and Stanley Cup championship veteran status as a third-line center would be a quality asset for teams closing in on the playoffs.
