The Toronto Maple Leafs have acquired Vancouver Canucks defenseman Luke Schenn.

Daily Faceoff NHL Insider Frank Seravalli was the first to break the trade, with Sportsnet’s Elliotte Friedman reporting that the Leafs will be sending a third round pick in this year’s draft to Vancouver.

Schenn was originally drafted fifth overall by the Maple Leafs in the first round of the 2008 NHL Entry Draft.
Schenn’s NHL career has had its ups and downs, but his perseverance has been truly remarkable to witness, with the right-shot defenseman putting together a career season at the age of 33.

I grew up playing Ball and Roller Hockey day and night somewhat religiously throughout elementary and middle school. The two don't compare though when I lace up the skates and hit the ice. I live and breathe hockey beyond the perspective of "it's just a game" and I will gladly talk hockey for hours with anyone. Hockey is more than just a lifestyle, it's a culture of passionate people who make memories every time the puck is dropped. Hockey has not only helped me get through some of the hardest times in life but has created some of the best memories to date. Want to talk hockey with me? Shoot me an email: iburdetskiy@hookedonhockey.com and let's talk some hockey!
