News about a possible trade involving Kris Letang
While the most recent reports suggested that Letang would finish his career in Pittsburgh, things seem to have changed with the Penguins' catastrophic start to the season.
According to a recent report by the reputable outlet The Athletic, Kristopher Letang may no longer be opposed to a trade.
And if he is traded, the logical destination seems to be Montreal.
This statement suggests that Letang's value, what it would take to acquire him, might not be very high due to his contract.
