I can't believe Schenn is still employed in the NHL. Let alone some team trading for him.

So the ducks, who can't score and have a bunch of d men add salary with a dman who doesn't score. Meanwhile Vancouver who I guess isn't trying dump a d man (I assume to give room to a younger guy since they sent Schenn right to the AHL) and shed salary which by the way, only thanks to IR players the Ducks are pressed up against the cap further, somebody tell me what I am missing here, cause I don't get this one.

Perhaps another D from the ducks is in play that we do not know about.

At least Del Zotto got closer to the Valley so he could chase around some porn stars a little easier.

Agree, gotta think Schenn is there in the event they move a more prominent D in another deal... dominoes...starting to sound like Ek... Pls kill me.

A Whatever move ... until we move a substantial piece .. Hampus / Josh / Cam / Montour or any of the kids or God forbid Gibson for someone who is a real offensively gifted player, Stone / Duchene / Willy ... this is all trash...

Interesting - how often do you get a trade where past teammates are traded for each other?

Eklund: Ducks Get Del Zotto from Canucks for Luke Schenn
- Eklund


“Schenn can also help the Canucks or can be moved again at the deadline...”

Schenn is an AHLer. Vancouver had to dump a player to clear a roster spot for Pettersson returning to the lineup. They managed to pick up a late round pick in the deal. This trade is essentially Del Zotto for a 7th rounder. Have you seen Schenn play?

Have you seen Del Zotto play? He's been scratched 15/16 past games.

Good move for Van. Schenn can fight. Canucks are softer than Kyle Wellwood's tummy.

Do what, lose? Increase their defensive zone turnover rate?

Exactly. He sucks too. But Ek said Schenn could help the Canucks. Clearly Ek doesn’t know how awful Schenn is or that he reported straight to Utica.
