There's been a lot of talk about Auston Matthews and his contract extension with the Toronto Maple Leafs. But it's not just Matthews affected.
Defenseman Luke Schenn, acquired during the trade deadline, is an unrestricted free agent whose future is uncertain. Contract talks have been put on hold after the dismissal of general manager Kyle Dubas.
Schenn expressed uncertainty about the situation and will wait to see how things unfold. He played a crucial role in the playoffs and had a positive experience returning to the team that drafted him.
However, decisions may be postponed until a new general manager is appointed.
