Brayden Schenn is set to reach a significant milestone by playing his 1,000th NHL game with the St. Louis Blues against the Washington Capitals. His older brother, Luke, achieved the same feat earlier this season with the Nashville Predators, marking the first time in NHL history that two brothers have reached this milestone in the same season. Schenn attributes his success to the support from family, coaches, and teammates, emphasizing the importance of teamwork in facing the challenges of the league.

As the trade deadline approaches, speculation surrounds both Schenn brothers, with the Blues on the cusp of a playoff berth while the Predators struggle. Despite the rumors, Brayden expresses his enjoyment of playing in St. Louis, understanding that trades are part of the business. With three years remaining on his contract and a cap hit of $6.5 million, he remains focused on his performance and the task at hand amidst external pressures.
