The Glorious Return of HF Boards - Letang Speculation

Well with the trade deadline, playoffs, and just lack of time, I haven't wrote any articles on the stupid shit that gets posted daily on the HF Boards.  Well with Rob Rossi reporting that an extension with the Pens and Letang isn't reached, the Toronto Maple Leafs would be a good fit for Letang.  So lets see what rumors are on the HF Boards because Pens-Leafs rumors are the best.

So the first person to post in the Letang thread was a Leafs fan.  They offered the following trade:




   Kris Letang



Nikolai Kulemin, Jake Gardiner, Biggs






Wouldn't be a Pens-Leafs rumor without Nikolai Kulemin coming to Pittsburgh.

The next trade offered seems weird to me.



Kris Letang, Bryan Rust?, 3rd Round Pick



Kulemin (of course), Franson, Matt Finn, 1st Round Pick, 2nd Round Pick, 4th Round pick




First of all, who the hell is Bryan Rust?  Secondly, if the Pens can get 3 draft picks plus Kulemin and Franson, do it Shero.  But the Leafs are the 2nd best at making the worst trades so I would expect anything

^ Couldn't agree more.




Kris Letang









Jake Gardiner, Nikolai Kulemin, 1st Round Pick





That wouldn't be a bad deal plus would be probably be fair value for Kris Letang.




Kris Letang



Nikolai Kulemin, Carl Gunnarsson, Tyler Biggs





The trade above, the person was like "I want Letang but I wouldn't give up Reilly or Gardiner for him"  Like dude, if you're not gonna give something good up, you're probably not getting Kris Letang.

This next trade doesn't really make sense to me.




Kris Letang, Scott Harrington



Nikolai Kulemin, Jake Gardiner, 1st Round (2014), 3rd Round (2013), Brad Ross




So this trade basically gives the Pens less than what they probably want for Letang while also giving the Leafs another one of the Pens top D prospects.  Toronto fans can be fucking retarded at times.  Plus Nonis is an idiot, no way he pulls something like this off.

Only way I give up Gardiner is if Brandon Sutter is coming back in the package and if Dion Phaneuf is traded for good assets.

How does this even make sense?

Basically, I can't read anymore of this because Leafs' fans are stupid.  Rossi tweeted the possibility for Letang to Toronto, so I'm assuming that Letang signs an extension with the Pens over the next few days.

Whatever.

Draft is in like 6 minutes

Go Pens.
