There are many different assets worth looking into heading onto the deadline, Bo Horvat, Brock Boeser, Conor Garland and the unsung hero Luke Schenn.
Schenn versatility, experience and cap hit make him one of the most valuable asset on the market. He's proven he could take minutes with skilled players like Quinn Hughes or play a shutdown role against the top lines.
Teams looking to add depth with low cap hits will definitely be intrigued by the hard hitting defenseman. Per Frank Seravalli insight, the Calgary Flames could be in on the Canucks' d-man.
From his perspective, he'd be a perfect fit for their head coach Darryl Sutter. The physicality and shot blocking abilities in his game left Sutter quite impressed. The two had the opportunity to share the same colours in the past, in Schenn's short time in LA. Sutter even stated earlier this season that Schenn would be a captain on most teams due to his leadership abilities.
Needless to say, he holds a lot of praises on the Canucks right-handed defenseman and there could definitely be a match there.
The Canucks were already offered a 2nd Round Pick for their asset and refused the offer, do you believe the Flames have what it takes to make Schenn pack his bags? What would be a good enough offer for the d-man?
