Islanders land Blues captain Schenn

The New York Islanders have acquired forward Brayden Schenn from the St. Louis Blues, according to TSN Hockey Insider Darren Dreger.
Dreger reports the Blues captain waived his no-move clause in order to join the Isles.
Schenn, 34, has 12 goals and 28 points in 61 games with the Blues this season.
The 6-foot-1 centre is in the sixth season of an eight-year, $52 million contract that carries an annual cap hit of $6.5 million. He is scheduled to become an unrestricted free agent at the end of the 2027-28 campaign.
Schenn played eight and a half seasons with the Blues, recording 181 goals and 465 points in 650 games and was named captain at the beginning of the 2023-24 campaign.
He helped lead the Blues to their first Stanley Cup championship in franchise history in 2019.
Drafted fifth overall by the Los Angeles Kings in 2009, Schenn has 290 goals and 713 points in 1,083 career games split between the Kings, Philadelphia Flyers, and Blues.
The Saskatoon, Sask., native represented Canada five times at the World Hockey Championship, taking home a gold medal in 2015 and a silver medal in 2017.
