Letang's Stellar Play Fuels Penguins' Playoff Push with Key Contributions

Kris Letang has been rock solid for the Penguins, making methodical decisions and showcasing athleticism, including an outrageous blue-line keep on the power play that led to Sidney Crosby's goal. Having replaced Erik Karlsson on the top unit, he led Penguins defensemen with 23:25 ice-time against the Flyers. He also provided a primary assist on Malkin's tying goal versus the Lightning and scored the game-winning goal in overtime against the Red Wings on Jan. 1, his 13th career OT goal, second-most by a defenseman in NHL history.
