Nice ideas, but I don't think Letang carries that much value and that deal for Mantha is way too light. I think you'd have to add a 2021 2nd as well.

Letang is getting worse defensively and is looking very poor all to often. Letang had 44pts last yr and still finished a 0 in plus/minus, hes scored 1 pt TOTAL the last TWO post seasons, is 33 yrs old and currently in poor form.

If DET was looking for a guy like that theres cheaper and better options out there...(dumba, gus, Montour, etc...)

Detroit definitely declines. We don’t want Letang since he’s 33 and we’re rebuilding.

Detroit says no thank you

Letang doesn’t fit in Detroit’s plans and Dumo is worth way more

You forgot guentzel, poj, jarry, poulin, kapanen and marino in the mantha trade

Yeah Wings definitely pass, Letang doesn't fit into our rebuild plans.

In response to your avatar. No one saw that coming Mario looked like someone just punched him in the gut.

Yup, out of nowhere. Lots of rumours circling around, I guess we’ll see what really happened within the next few weeks when stuff gets out

Detroit dont need Letang, he is tradebait for a contender uf things go poorly.

But on the topic of Mantha: You guys seem him play this season? He been mostly horrible defensively and showing no will to compete...
