[Report] Penguins want 1 or 2 roster players, top prospect, and 1st round pick for Letang


Recommended Posts

Bieksa(If he waives his no-trades), Tanev, 1st

Edler-Letang - If Torts and Letang can help get Edler back to his full potential I can see them doing very well together.

Hamhuis-Garrison - They were together for most of last season and was our best defense pairing for the last half of that season.

Corrado-Alberts/Ballard/etc. - Top 6 pairing.

Our PP gets extremely better having Letang at the point. He could be a better partner than Ehrhoff or Salo ever were for Edler.

One can only dream..

Hamhuis Letang

Edler Garrison

Bieksa Tanev

That's more along the lines of a Stanley Cup winning D.

I've said since Ehrhoff left that this teams biggest need is a creative puck moving D-man that can run a powerplay. If Gillis wants to go "all in" for one more run, this team can squeeze in Letang at 3.5 mil.

Only problem is that's alot of assets to give up for a player that could very well bolt in a year.

Just read that Pittsburgh made an offer to Letang for 8 years around $54 million. If he doesn't sign they are going to look at trading him. Here's the interesting part. They don't want to trade him to a team in the East. If they trade him they want to trade him to the West. And apparently they are interested in the prospects of Anaheim and Vancouver.

EDIT: IMO we can't afford Letang. Still though it's always fun to speculate.
