Proposal: Pitt/Mont

[Lockin17]

0 interest from montreal.. That contract is not good for a rebuilding team.
Deal makes no sense for pens either

Good thing your not a GM ..

Letang is twice the player of Anderson.
Letang would be great with the youngster comming up not Anderson, so yes he fits the rebuild

 

[Miller Time]

How do you calculate the difference bewteen 5.5 and 6.1 mil per? Is it different than the rest of the world?

Yes and...you don't have a cohesive argument.

Appears you are confusing cap hits with real dollars. They aren't the same

This kind of confusion is consistent with your other comments.

I can see that I'm not able to help clarify your lack of understanding. Enjoy the day.

he certainly is and he's being paid 6.1 million till he's 40.
That's great for a rebuild - on Earth 2 - where most of your
alternate reality hockey takes materialize

 

[bud12]

I don't want Letang anywhere near the habs.

Speaking of confused...

...even if you had made an argument based on cash vs. cap hit - which you didn't - Letang makes less in actual cash in each of the next 3 years.

Anderson 7mil, 5mil, 3.5mil

vs.

Letang 6.2mil, 4.8 mil, 1mil

 

[HabzSauce]

Letang makes 6.1 mil per and has been a #1 defenseman for years, right up to last year.

Anderson makes 5.5 mil per and has been a shit 3rd liner for years.

19 games for either doesn't change that, unless one has the memory of a goldfish.

Letang is 37. At his age, a 20 game sample size carries more weight for him than it does for Anderson.

Couldn't stop at just a bad take, eh?

Being wrong is one thing, your posts suffer from worse than that. This kind of silly posting is what pulls this site down.

Your numbers are wrong according to this site:

https://puckpedia.com/player/kris-letang

Letang has 3 years, plus rest of this one.

Anderson has 2 + this one.

You posted 3 #'s for each.

Math is hard for you as well I guess.

Jeez your posts just go from bad to worse...

Don't bother, this kind of understanding is a bridge too far for this poster's awful takes lol

 

[Empoleon8771]

While Letang can contribute as a RHD, he will also block Mailioux for a few years.

This only works if the Habs get high value for Matheson, replace him with Letang and rebalance Guhle to the left side. Then Mailman has a path to learn behind Letang.

Hutson and Letang will be DEADLY combo. FAR better the Matheson/Guhle.

Then Guhle goes left partnered with Mailman.

This only works for Montreal on a multi move, multi team trade OR Matheson for Letang and a second. Why the second? Because it will be easier and more valuable for the Pens. Right now, the Pens get a plate of poutine and a 3rd if Letang ONLY wants to go home and play for the Habs.

Or they can just keep Letang and not trade a 2nd to get Matheson for him?

Crazy thought.

 

[elmaco]

I don't see Letang moving, doesn't make sense for 2 basement teams.

 

[Empoleon8771]

Arguing about which side this trade makes less sense for is weird. Letang has a bad deal that Montreal wouldn’t want and the Penguins have no incentive to move him if they’re not getting value for him. Why not just leave it at that?

 

[HabsAddict]

Or they can just keep Letang and not trade a 2nd to get Matheson for him?

Crazy thought.

IF Letang wants to stay. IF he wants to be trsded for his hometown the Habs wont offer much for him. MAYBE a second...or less.

If Pens trade for Math and a second, they will get more then a second for Matheson. Probably a first and s second.

The Habs don't have to do ANYTHING and Letang can turn down EVERY trade.

It is what it is....

If Letang wants to leave but it would cost the Penguins assets to trade him, then they’d tell him tough shit and deal with it.

They’re not trading picks anymore in any sort of Letang trade.

 

[Spearmint Rhino]

Anderson is actually playing ok hockey this year, overpaid by $2MM but we need size more than we need cap space. Now if Letang wants out from Pitts and only waiving for Montreal then we can get a veteran RHD that allows us to trade Savard and Matheson getting our D-pairs playing their correct sides. Send us Letang 50% retained and we will send you a 3td, basically same deal Sharks got for Burns

 

[Ledge And Dairy]

Who on the Habs is a former Soo Greyhound?

 

[Dipsy Doodle]

There's a gigantic sample size of Anderson being an underwhelming, extemely overpaid bottom 6er.

Yes, the remainder of this year and 2 following. Got my info from this site:

Kris Letang | NHL Contracts & Salaries | Spotrac.com

Kris Letang contract and salary cap details, full contract breakdowns, salaries, signing bonus, roster bonus, dead money, and valuations.

www.spotrac.com

Josh Anderson | NHL Contracts & Salaries | Spotrac.com

Josh Anderson contract and salary cap details, full contract breakdowns, salaries, signing bonus, roster bonus, dead money, and valuations.

And again, you give no argument for cash vs. cap hit, so your point is moot anyway. Par for the course.

Great but youre making it seem like 20 game sample size for letang was peanuts and that's all I was responding to

reading the posts you reply to, and reading the sites you quote, before replying, is a good way to avoid doubling down on a bad, and factually incorrect take.

I'm pretty sure you'd understand better if you took the time to do that.

Fyi, a signing bonus = cash

You know, this is the kind of situation where you acquire a player for what he used to be rather than what he is currently bringing and then once he’s in Montreal you understand why he’s been literally given to you and you start screaming left and right how dumb and stupid your GM is and how his contract is going to be an anchor for 3 and a half years

 

[habsterr]

Letang's contract is horrible and likely not going to age well.

How exactly does this affect trade value?

That's the key question you've been dodging this whole exchange.

This'll be a fun thread to revisit later in the season after each player returns to the mean.

Like I said, start by reading the posts you've been replying to, it was explained quite clearly before you went on the hole digging expedition

That's the key question you've been dodging this whole exchange.

nope. Just not interested in re-typing the ssme explanation

You could start by typing it once.
