BRAVEMAN91 Posted July 16, 2014 Share Posted July 16, 2014 Heard on the 1040 and Mcletchie, that the Pens have gone to Kris Letang to see if he will waive his NTC. They have requested 15 teams... Waiting to see if one of the big boys will break the story on twitter. But that was out today on the Moj's show,. Take it for what it is...A rumour at this point Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AriGold Posted July 16, 2014 Share Posted July 16, 2014 NHL EXPERT PICKS @NHLexpertpicks Jul 13 If price is right, Kris Letang could be moved. GM Rutherford asked him to submit a 15 team list of acceptable trade destinations. #Pens Paramveer Virk @TheLeafsNews Jul 14 Pittsburgh Penguins Kris Letang was asked to submit a list of 15 teams he'd accept a trade to a month ago, the #Habs were on that list #Pens Pens Report @pensreport Jul 13 Yes, the report is true- per TVA Sports Kris Letang has been asked by #Pens to submit a 15 team no-trade list by: http://tvasports.ca/hockey/lnh/le-canadien-etait-sur-ma-liste-letang-12072014 … Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BRAVEMAN91 Posted July 16, 2014 Author Share Posted July 16, 2014 Yeah saw those, but was waiting for Bob Mckenzie, or one of those dudes. Thx Ari Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Monty Posted July 16, 2014 Share Posted July 16, 2014 Due to stroke, he'll go for less than what he would have gone for before. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DeNiro Posted July 16, 2014 Share Posted July 16, 2014 Can't see a whole lot of teams being interested unless the Pens retain some salary. 7.25 for Letang is too much. I'd rather take a chance on developing Myers back into a top defenseman. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ForsbergTheGreat Posted July 16, 2014 Share Posted July 16, 2014 Letang is asked every year to present a list of 15 teams that he would waive to. It's part of his contract, this year is no different, It was on NHL radio today and Montreal reporters to blow things out of proportion, like they usually do, because montreal was on that list.

AriGold Posted July 16, 2014 Share Posted July 16, 2014 15 teams vs Kes 2 I believe Letangs contract says he must submit 15. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Warhippy Posted July 16, 2014 Share Posted July 16, 2014 Few teams can right now take that kind of contract. With his injury history fewer teams will pay what Pitts is going to want for him. Added now Niskanen is in fact gone who plays for them in Letang's spot? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pears Posted July 16, 2014 Share Posted July 16, 2014 I think he'd be a perfect fit with either the Islanders or the Hurricanes. Although he would complete our defence when he's healthy: Hamhuis - Letang Edler - Tanev Sbisa - Bieksa That's the type of defence I'd be willing to do Jensen++ for.

banana republic Posted July 16, 2014 Share Posted July 16, 2014 Florida, Tampa, edm, and Dal could all be interested. We are on his list no doubt just because of luc RIP. Idk if they are some salary retention then I might be interested Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sirensong Posted July 16, 2014 Share Posted July 16, 2014 Edler, Hansen Burrows for Letang Despres Sutter Might need to add a pick or 2 to make value work but thats a pretty solid deal for both sides. Sedin Sedin Vrbata Higgins Bonino Kassian Matthias Sutter Vey Sestito Richardson Dorsett Hamhuis Letang Stanton Bieksa Sbisa Tanev Now that's a pretty damn solid 3rd line with a nice mix of size skill speed and 2 way play. Win now move for Pitt, get younger while adding a big name to sell to the fans with Letang. And if Bonino does turn out to be more productive on the wing...

MayRayDown Posted July 16, 2014 Share Posted July 16, 2014 So pittsburgh will lose Niskanen, Orkpic, Letang this offseasom while only gaining Ehrhoff. Think pittsburgh isnt a top team anymore in the east Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SID.IS.SID.ME.IS.ME Posted July 16, 2014 Share Posted July 16, 2014 The Pens pretty much (re)committed to keeping Letang when they let Niskanen go (he would have stayed in Pittsburgh is they'd offered him the term he was looking for). And the 15 teams thing, as several others have noted, is just standard procedure for Letang's contract. Nothing to see here. Moving on... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
