Thread: Getting Pietro is the ONLY WAY we move Letang which is crazy
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>mhockey91</b></div><div>Danault also is rumoured to have no interest in re-signing in MTL, if he is playing 3C, which is entirely likely considering they have Suzuki and JK who need more minutes. Lehkonen is a third liner. So the only part of your "future" is Primeau, and goalies are very tough to predict. I think MTL would be better off just trading Danault at deadline for a combo of picks/ prospects if they arent in playoff contention, because i doubt he is going to resign, and they could get a nice return.</div></div>

Okay that's a rumour and that doesn't make him valueless. It's also rumoured he's not happy playing 3rd line C which he would be playing in Pittsburgh as well. Goalies are tough to predict but he is our best goalie prospect and he played solid in the nhl even though it was a short sample. Lehkonen played very well in the playoffs and is amazing on the pk. I also think he is going to get better. You also ignored the fact that the return In this trade answers none of our needs, we need a LD and a goal scorer.
You also litteraly said you think "MTL would be better off just trading Danault at deadline for a combo of picks/ prospects if they arent in playoff contention" which in this trade we lose a 3rd and a 5th and we only get a 7th. We also get an old.
Letang is essentially no use for MTL in there future.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>mhockey91</b></div><div>for the long term, sure, but as of right now, hes still a top D in this league and there is no denying that</div></div>

Okay I get what your saying but MTL is looking for the longish term. Lehkonen, Danault, and Primeau are a big part of our future. Especially Primeau. Sure letang would help us right away but we have weber and petry on the right side. We need Left D. Also Danault was our number 1 center. The line with Tatar, Gallagher, and him was really good.
Danault doesn't even play on the power play. He had more 5 on 5 points than bergeron. He also finished 6th in this year's selke voting.
So don't expect us to take it nicely when you give us a really good old defenceman for our future.
