Kris Letang Good To Go Saturday
1 year agoPittsburgh Penguins defenseman Kris Letang is good to go for Saturday's game against the St. Louis Blues after missing Thursday's practice due to a lower-body injury. "We're just monitoring," Letang said after he logged a hefty 24:35 of ice time in a loss to the Red Wings on Wednesday. The veteran blueliner has a lengthy history of injuries throughout his 18-year NHL career but has been productive with a trio of assists with six shots, four blocks, six hits, and two penalty minutes across his first four games this season. However, with the club's offseason addition of Erik Karlsson, Letang's fantasy stock has taken a serious hit, mostly due to the loss of first-unit power play duties. At the same time, he is still a cross-category contributor who is very much still fantasy-relevant.
