Kris Letang is currently in Montreal: we might get an answer tonight
Pittsburgh journalist Mark Madden claimed that the Penguins have talked with the Montreal Canadiens about a trade involving defenseman Kris Letang.
This is big news that surfaced yesterday, and we have the details in the following article.
In his statement, Mark Madden even went so far as to say this:

So, did Kris Letang ask to play for the Montreal Canadiens?
It seems hard to believe, but this comes from a Pittsburgh journalist who works for 105.9 The X and TribLive, so it's certainly worth mentioning.
That being said, what does Kristopher Letang himself think?
Kris Letang is in Montreal: We might have our answer as early as tonight
As Max Truman just mentioned, the main person of interest is already in town, and he will be at Complexe Hockey Etcetera this evening.
Will someone ask him the question? Will Kris Letang be willing to give the real answer?
We'll see in the next few hours, but don't be surprised if the Quebec-born defenseman denies the information, or simply refuses to comment.
After all, he is an active player for the Pittsburgh Penguins.
Kristopher Letang, 37 years old, is a native of Montreal, Quebec, and is a right-handed defenseman standing 6 feet tall and weighing 201 pounds.
Last season with the Pittsburgh Penguins, he tallied 51 points in 82 games. In 2022-23, he recorded 41 points in 64 games, and in 2021-22, he registered 68 points in 78 games.
He's still very solid.
And you, would you like to see a deal between Montreal and Pittsburgh?
