HF Boards - Value of Letangarang

So last week we looked at what the HF Boards thought the value of Sidney Crosby is.  The Best in the World had a great week and basically said F Off to everyone who thought this could even be possible.

So today, we will go inside the depths of Kris Letang's hair and maybe figure out what shampoo he uses.
So this topic of Value of: Letang for a legit 1st line winger, was started when the Pens played the Caps back on February 7th and Letang didn't play.

Part of the reason this person wanted to know the value of Letang is "The Pens beat the Caps pretty easily without him in the lineup, so obviously they don't need him"

This is a pretty lengthy thread so we're only going to look at stupid proposals out of this or whatever.

Well other than a Pens fan says "Letang is our best defenseman, there is no way he will be moved"

The guy who started the tread mentioned that Shero didn't hesitate to move Whitney or Goligoski (which ended up being Kunitz, Neal, and Niskanen) and Whitney or Gogo weren't #1 D men.

Then a typical Leafs fan chimes in with a typical Maple Leafs offer.



 Kris Letang



       




JVR, Gardiner






Umm..........

Yeah, we'll just leave it at that.

So a Sens fan decides since Matt Cooke took Karlsson's leg off, that they should trade for Letang




Kris Letang









Michalek, Silfverberg, Ceci, 1st





Don't get me wrong, Milan Michalek is a great player and Silfverberg has some nice moves.  Yes, I have no idea what his first name is and I'm too lazy to look it up, but I feel like this trade makes absolutely no SENSe.  So yeah no comment from that.

So we now have a proposal from a Red Wings presented by Amway, fan.




Kris Letang








Johan Franzen, Smith, and Kyle Quincey





Okay, so Johan Franzen is like 100 years old or something like that, I have no idea who Smith is, and Quincey isn't a very good replacement.  So not sure this is fair value at all, nor do I understand why this is even offered.  But this is the HF Boards so nothing really surprises me.

So an Islanders fan trying to gauge value offers the following trade:




  Kris Letang











Kyle Okposo and Micheal Grabner

OR:     Ninoreideter plus Okposo or Grabner



First of all, didn't the Pens have Okposo at one point in time??   Second, Grabner really is fast as shit, but this deal is moot because no way the Pens trade Letang inside the division and theres no way the Islanders are gonna deal two of their better players.  So sorry bro nice tryyyy.  Have fun in Brooklyn in a few years.

Then a Pens fan asks "Tavares for Letang" in a Counter offer.

No way bro.  Tavares is to the Islanders what Crosby is to the Pens

Typical Leafs guy comes in "Kessel for Letang"

NOPE. By the way, why do they always trade Phil Kessel on there?

Then a Sens fan offers a new trade for Letang which leads to the best comment in HF Boards recent history by domaug, who is a Pens fan.

doumaug: "that's probably worse than the Leafs offer, which should probably get you an award"


But that Sens to Pens offer goes as following:




Kris Letang









Milan Michalek and Sergei Gonchar



All aboard the Gonch train, but NOOOOOOOOO.  Why trade your Top Defenseman in his mid 20s for a 38 year old defenseman with a year or so left and a mid 30's top 6 forward who probably would make the 3rd line, yes behind Beau Bennett

Some Ducks fan (yes they apparantly exist) offered "Bobby Ryan and Cam Fowler for Letang"

Hmmm....  Interesting.

So a Rangers fan wants in on the Letangarang action.




Kris Letang












Marian Gaborik, 2014 1st, and Brady Skjei



To me, this is basically Gaborik for Letang straight up.  Honestly, not sure how to make fun of it, other than in division rivals.

NO words for this next offer....





Kris Letang












Evander Kane




ARE YOU KIDDING?!?!?!

Dude's probably delusional from living in Winnipeg and being cold all of his life.

Leafs guys are at it again you guys.



Kris Letang and a 1st Round Pick








Phil Kessel and Nikolai Kulemin





Wouldn't be a HF Boards thread without Kulemin involved in rumors to the Pens.  Not sure how this deal justifies a 1st for the Pens other than Toronto thinks they deserve it being from Toronto.  Other than that, HAHAHAHAHA Leafs offers might be the easiest to make fun of.

Looking through the post and apparantly Vanek and Crosby equals 943093240290 goals or something like that?

And now someone offers a Pens-Rangers trade that MIGHT take the cake.




Kris Letang, James Neal, 2014 and 2015 1st








Marc Staal, Dan Girardi, Derek Stepan, Brian Boyle, 2014 2nd




Umm... Where to even start with this.  Brian BoyLOLe. Second, Neal to Rangers? LOL because trading a 40 goal scorer is always smart.  Letang isn't worth Girardi and Staal combined, so not sure how Stepan and BoyLOLe is enough for both Letang and Neal.  Picks are kinda stupid too.  NYR Typical i guess?

Then a Habs fan makes a Montreal typical move and offers something close to as stupid as the last Rangers trade.





Kris Letang











Max Pacioretty




Umm, I see why they want Letang, besides the fact he's one of the best defenseman in the NHL, but does this guy think this is even remotely close value??  Never change Habs fans, never change.  Bonjour!

Oh by the way, this might be worse than Kessel for Letang straight up.  BYEEEE

There was a Flames offer in there, but its too stupid for me to even make fun of it.

Honestly, there's so many more offers in this, but it's giving me a headache and some memory loss.  Especially with all the Kessel for Letang straight up deals offered on this post.  If you feel like wasting your time you can read the Value of Letang at                                  http://hfboards.hockeysfuture.com/showthread.php?t=1344975&page=7

I started yinz off where I left off.  Feel free to comment or tweet me your thoughts on the stupid shit posted here.

As for Letang's hair, my guess is he uses Head & Shoulders


So well for what it's worth, that was the Value of Kris Letang, although half of those people are drunk.

Letang is gonna continue taking pictures like this:
And play hockey like this:
As for next week, who knows where the HF Boards will take us, especially with Malkin's concussion, the rumor mill on the boards could unbearable.

Thanks for wasting however long it took you to read this.

@kingling43 is my twitter again

Anywayssssssssssss

Go Internet.

Go Pens.


PEACEEEE
