Quoted from Blitzburgh99:

As a pens fan.....there are two players that make me nervous when they are on the ice, and on edge until they change shift.
1. Ovechkin. That dude has a rocket of a shot and I’m always worried about him either scoring a goal or hurting one of the defenseman trying to block
His shot
2. Kris Letang. I like my defenseman who play defense, hence the name “defense”’man. He a winger by skill and size. He plays with his stick, not his body. Always out of position, but has the speed to make up for many mistakes. Last years playoff run showed the pens don’t need him. I didn’t like the contract they signed him to when they did, and soon after he had all kinds of health problems. He plays fast and loose, and firmly believe that he was a huge part of fleury becoming a headcase a few years back. Defensemen are supposed to settle the back end down, not turn the puck over and get out of position to let other team score. His plus/minus is horrible, and he’s usually in the ice when there are some talented goal scorers in front of him. He was a big part of the pens losing their marbles against Flyers a few years back. He spears people all the time and slashes them. People called crosby a cry baby, but Letang was big part of people viewing the penguins as whiners. I’d rather have Ian Cole, Hainsey, Dailey,etc than Letang. He has an “A” on his sweater. If the pens fall short of winning the cup, Letang will be a big part of it. Look for him when pens have a goal scored against them and you will see him with a stick flailing, or skating through the crease a few seconds late, like the third tow truck driver arriving on the scene of a two car accident. His contract cost them Bonino and Daley and more over the years. Shultz handles the power play point better than he does. Much calmer. I root for Letang to prove me wrong everytime he’s on the ice, but he never fails to piss me off at least a few times every game.
