Schenn has received a suspension for a charge against the Capitals' T.J. Oshie and will serve it in the first three games of his 2016-17 regular season.

Analysis:

Schenn enters the offseason set to become a restricted free agent, but the three-game suspension shouldn't have much bearing on his status. It seems quite possible the Flyers will attempt to sign Schenn in the offseason, but there's still no guarantee he will be in Philadelphia next season. Regardless, the 24-year-old is likely set for a significant pay bump following a season in which he set career highs in goals (26) and assists (33).
