Don’t count out Brayden Schenn’s multi-category production on draft day
Background
Brayden Schenn was selected with the fifth-overall pick in the 2009 draft by Los Angeles. As he wrapped up his junior career, his stock rose immensely especially in the prospect rankings at this site. In fact, Schenn made his way up to the #1 spot in the prospect rankings. In June 2011, prior to making the jump to the NHL, Schenn was shipped to the Philadelphia Flyers in the trade that sent Mike Richards to the Kings. The trade had major implications as Richards would go on to win two Stanley Cups out west.
Four-year NHL career
In four full years, Schenn has become a very respectable NHLer. However, he has not become the star many have been waiting for. Instead, Schenn has settled into more of a secondary-scoring role. While he did achieve a career-best 47 points this year, it is still well short of fantasy poolies' expectations, especially those that invested in Schenn in keeper leagues. So what does the future hold for Schenn? Here are his NHL stats following the trade to Philadelphia:
