Atlantic Notes: Schenn, Red Wings, Senators Sale

May 27, 2023 at 10:31 am CDT | by Brian La Rose 6 Comments

Maple Leafs defenseman Luke Schenn noted in an appearance on TSN 1050 (audio link) that there had been some discussions about a possible contract extension but that those are now on hold with their search for a new GM.  The 33-year-old was brought in from Vancouver prior to the trade deadline and he fit in well in his second stint with Toronto, averaging four hits per game in 15 regular season contests, a number that jumped to nearly five per night in the playoffs. At this point in his career, Schenn is a third-pairing option that can kill penalties but he should still be positioned to earn a nice bump on his $850K AAV from the past two years.  However, if he wants to remain with the cap-strapped Maple Leafs, he’ll almost certainly have to leave at least a bit of money on the table to do so.

Elsewhere in the Atlantic:

  • Red Wings assistant GM Shawn Horcoff acknowledged to Ted Kulfan of The Detroit News (subscription link) that he will be looking to add some more veterans to their AHL team for next season. Grand Rapids is likely to feature several of Detroit’s top prospects in 2023-24 but rather than put all of them in top roles right away, they’re going to hedge their bets with some older players that can play an impact role at the beginning.  It’s already going to be a busy summer for the Griffins who will have a new coaching staff next season and if Horcoff has his way, they’ll now be picking up some key veterans as well.
  • Postmedia’s Bruce Garrioch suggests that the winner of the sale process for the Senators is now likely to be revealed next week since it wasn’t determined prior to the start of the Memorial Day long weekend. At the moment, none of the four groups have been told that they’re out although the Neko Sparks-led group is still trying to secure financing, a sign that their bid is on the lower end.  When the bids were submitted earlier this month, Steve Apostolopoulos is believed to have offered the most money at $1BB.

    About the one constant to the Red Wings (other than the uniforms) over the last several decades is that the organization strongly believes in having a loaded AHL team: Adirondack and now Grand Rapids in its turn have had much success. Good to see they’re staying the course there.

      By virtue of being born on November 2, 1989 and then drafted at 18 years old in 2008 like so many talented young guys before him. Now 15 years later after entering the NHL, he’s 33.

      But yes, it feels like a guy who has bounced around through seven teams has perhaps had more mileage in years on him. Or perhaps you feel like you have seen more lifetime pass in the past fifteen years since his debut that it seems like he should be matching how old you feel you have gotten?

      In any case, I hope this answers your question you didn’t expect to draw a response.

      Falsified bith certificate? Only way that makes sense to me.

    That’s where the Redwings continually make mistakes. Give the young players as many minutes as they can take at the AHL level. Don’t coddle them or force them to mature gradually. The Wings approach is too conservative. Sean Horcoff and Dan Cleary are doing nothing to advance the organization’s success.

    After seeing us move up on Drafting Cossa and now seeing Dylan Guenther out here in Seattle after AZ sent him down to WHL. AZ started him too early in NHL. Good AZ sent him back to WHL. We passed on drafting Guenther. What a horse. Clutch scorer too. I know the story is not closed on Cossa but Guenther is just the type of forward we needed.
