It's unfair though to compare a guy who is washed up to Letang who's in his prime. Doan in his good years vs Letang now would be a tough choice.
- QuebecPride

But still, Doan best years couldn't even reach ppg level.

I can't quote the exact numbers over the limited time.

But he did assist all three of Galchenyuk's goals.

If I'm MT, I wouldn't want to sacrifice my best goal scorer for the sake of another player getting goals.

He'll get to the middle eventually, but something has to give first.

Letang is better. He is ppg defenseman. He even had 38 points in 35 games. Last year, he was in top 10 in goals in defensemen while playing less than half a season. He hits too and fights too. Doan can't even get ppg as a forward while Letang can as a defense.

Do you watch hockey? Letang was still really good when Crosby and Malkin were injured at the same time.

FINALLY someone has the guts to ask 3M this question.

It's because of player like Rinaldo and Doan. Doan is not comparable to Iginla. Doan sucks.

It's one thing to claim you like Letang better than Doan.

But Shane Doan has had a pretty good career and he absolutely does not suck.

How many players play in the NHL play until they're 38?

It's because he never make it to playoff. He disappeared when things gets tough. He only go after the weaker ones like Rinaldo.

The point is you're trying to compare two players who play different positions on teams that couldn't be any farther apart in terms of style of play and success. But please, continue providing us with useless statistics.
