15-years-ago, the Toronto Maple Leafs drafted Luke Schenn fifth overall in the 2008 NHL draft.
He was expected to become the next big thing for the Toronto Maple Leafs, but things did not work out for the young defencemen.
On June 23rd, 2012, Schenn was dealt to the Flyers in exchange for James Van Riemsdyk in one of the most lopsided trades ever to occur in the Leafs favour.
