Luke Schenn's Time to Shine?

Luke Schenn has had it rough. Selected 5th overall by the Toronto Maple Leafs in 2008, he was expected to become a high class shut down defence man for the team.

Trade offer for a D-Man?



During Brian Burke's press conference today, he calmly stated that he had received a major trade offer for a D-man other then Tomas Kaberle. As usual he has said something that will set this city on fire for the next week or so with the numerous amounts of rumours that will pop up.

Whatever happens it seems that the trade probably won't go down this week as Burke in his interview on AM640 stated that he's going to take a little break and go fishing (too much info perhaps lol). If anything is supposed to happen in the near future for the Leafs it will be the signing of Farjestads captain Rickard Wallin who has some interest in coming back to the NHL after having an unsuccessful attempt the first time around.

It certainly is a different off season for Leafs fans who are used to mediocrity at best when it comes to our offseason moves. Burke has been a breath of fresh air and not to undermine the guys who work under him especially Nonis.

It will certainly be interesting to see who made this offer to Burke and who were the guys involved. I am sure someone will release the names soon enough, Eklund is probably already coming up with the names right now LMAO.
