Q: What have you made of Gavin McKenna's short stints so far stepping into the NHL at his age?

Q: What have you made of Gavin McKenna's short stints so far stepping into the NHL at his age?

Luke Schenn Reflects on 19 NHL Seasons, McKenna's Potential & Brian Burke
Q: It feels like fighting is up in the NHL. Has it got that feel to you too?
Schenn agrees that fighting seems more prominent, but says it remains far less common than it was 15 or 20 years ago, when teams often had multiple enforcers. He welcomes players competing and standing up for one another.
Leafs Enter Movember on a High Note & Kucherov to Toronto?! ft. Bruce Boudreau
Q: Curious, as a hockey lifer, what was your thoughts on seeing everything go down on Friday with Nikita Kucherov and then obviously it's Toronto and then there's word out there that Toronto would be a destination that Kucherov would be open to going to.
Boudreau says Kucherov is unlikely to come to Toronto because the Leafs would have to give up too many young players and fit a major salary commitment. He says trading McKenna for Kucherov would only make sense if Toronto were a genuine Stanley Cup contender.
