    Default Letang Down

    I try not to post too much, not because I don't value this community, but because I'm 90% sure most of my league is either lurking or posting under pseudonyms (cowards). Anyway...

    I literally just traded for Letang, his injury coming in before the 24 hour veto period cooled off on the trade. Any updates here are mucho, mucho... (mucho) appreciated. Also **** you Joey (just in case).

    from hockeywriters ....As for Letang, “upper-body” could mean anything, but it’s believed he may have hurt his surgically-repaired neck after the tackle by Gostisbehere. This would be the worst possible outcome...

    Selfishly I hope he's out, as I'm eyeing Schultz.

    Very selfish. Get out of here.

    If he's out for a significant amount of time I'm likely done in a league in which I went all in with trades. Crossing fingers and toes.

    Me as well. Traded Kopitar, Josi and a scrub for Letang, Krug and Hoffman. Was working out great......

    That's still a fairly solid deal even if Letang is out for ROS...

    That's almost just karma for fleecing your trade partner :P

    I traded Doughty and a pick upgrade straight up for Letang... leaves me with Provorov. Points only. Should go well.

    Letang neck injury is not long term. Won’t play on Tuesday.
    Without me, it's only "aweso".

    Neither Letang nor Dumoulin will be making the trip Tuesday to Columbus.

    Fantasy hockey makes me feel guilty about hoping that Letang has a broken neck.

    Kris Letang (upper body) was on the ice Monday morning.

    Advice: Letang wasn't part of Monday's practice though. Given that he isn't practicing with the Penguins yet, we don't expect him to make his return on Tuesday.

    "Not long term" is losing its credibility the closer my playoffs get

    Supposedly Letang dealing with a strained neck. On the ice this morning wearing a non-contact jersey.

    Dressed him this week - saw a video of him on the ice yesterday morning and he was buzzing. Didn't look too bad. But what do I know.....
    Hockey Pools? Too many to mention. Points only, salary cap and dynasty.

    Final week of the regular season this week, 1st round bye next week.... I am feeling reasonably comfortable I'll have him back by the 2nd round.

    Traded Seth Jones for him straight up, and Jones's cap hit in our dynasty league is about a third of Letang's.
