TSN’s Darren Dreger reports that the Winnipeg Jets are acquiring defenseman Luke Schenn from the Pittsburgh Penguins. The Penguins recently acquired Schenn in a trade with the Nashville Predators.
Dreger quickly followed up, reporting that Pittsburgh is receiving a second- and fourth-round pick in return. Frank Seravalli of Daily Faceoff added that the second-round pick will be in 2026 and the fourth-round pick in 2027.
Now that Schenn has been moved to Winnipeg, the Penguins have essentially acquired Thomas Novak, a 2026 second-round pick, and a one-year punt on a fourth-round pick for Michael Bunting. The added draft capital gives Pittsburgh 30 total picks in the next three drafts.
