• Blues' Brayden Schenn: Ends goal drought Tuesday

  15H ago • By RotoWire

  Schenn scored a power-play goal in Tuesday's 3-2 loss to the Bruins. The 33-year-old center opened the scoring midway through the second period, snapping a 13-game goal drought by tapping home a rebound with the man advantage. It was just Schenn's second goal of the season and first power-play point, and through 16 contests he's managed only six points despite a consistent shift in the top six and on the first power-play unit.

• Blues' Brayden Schenn: Generates assist in loss

  18D ago • By RotoWire

  Schenn had an assist, one shot on net and two PIM in Saturday's 5-2 loss to Montreal. Schenn's drive to the net in the second period was rebuffed by Sam Montembeault, but the ensuing sequence let to Jake Neighbours' game-tying tally. The assist was Schenn's second in as many games and third over the last four. He had practiced on the top line earlier this week, presumably as a potential replacement for Robert Thomas (lower body), but he's been back home centering the second line in the two games since. Schenn did a reasonable impression of Thomas, the Blues' faceoff leader (62.6 percent), by winning 15 of 22 (68.2 percent) draws Saturday.

• Blues' Brayden Schenn: Moves to top line

  21D ago • By RotoWire

  Schenn centered the top line at Wednesday's practice, Jeremey Rutherford of The Athletic reports. Schenn bounced between the second and third lines through seven contests but now looks like the replacement for Robert Thomas, who is expected to miss at least six weeks with a fractured ankle. The club likely hopes Schenn, who has one goal on 21 shots (4.8 shooting percentage) and one assist, can spark a team that is starving for offense thus far, ranking 22nd with 2.71 goals per game.

• Blues' Brayden Schenn: Chips in with assist

  25D ago • By RotoWire

  Schenn notched an assist, three shots on goal, two hits and two PIM in Saturday's 4-3 win over the Hurricanes. Schenn has two points through six contests this season. He's been listed on the third line, but with 17-plus minutes of ice time in five of his six appearances, he's functioned more as a top-six forward. The veteran center has added 19 shots on net, 17 hits, eight blocked shots and a minus-3 rating. Schenn maintains a decent shot volume and racks up hits, but he needs to display a little more consistency on offense.

• Blues' Brayden Schenn: Completes comeback in overtime

  10/11/2024 • By RotoWire

  Schenn scored the game-winning goal on a game-high seven shots in Thursday's 5-4 overtime win over the Sharks. Schenn scored 45 seconds into overtime to complete the Blues' rally from a three-goal deficit. The 33-year-old has played on the third line to begin the season, but his ice time has been more in line with a top-six player, so he should still receive plenty of chances to contribute. Schenn was limited to 20 goals and 46 points in 82 appearances last year, but he's been over the 50-point mark in four of the last six campaigns.
