On a recent episode of TSN Insider Trading, Darren Dreger reported that a Schenn trade is less likely to occur with the Blues being back in the playoff race.

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.

TSN hockey insider Darren Dreger was on "First Up" on Monday morning and was asked how that could affect the possibility of Schenn being traded this week. He said (3:28):

Schenn, 33, has appeared in 61 games this season with the Blues, where he has 12 goals, 37 points, and 151 hits. The Blues captain is also signed until the completion of the 2027-28 season, carrying a $6.5 million cap hit.

The Blues' playoff chances are looking murky at best, and that has led to some trade speculation involving their captain.

St. Louis Blues captain Brayden Schenn addressed trade speculation for the first time since reports started to emerge linking him to a potential move ahead of the deadline. Speaking on Tuesday, via Lou Korac The Hockey News, the Blues veteran made it clear that he remains committed to the team despite the growing rumors.
