What did he do to piss you off? I've met him more than once and he's a nice guy. He's very private and now he's spending all his time with his family. Most people who have met him, including the ones who know him well, say nothing but good things about him.He'd be more likable if he wasn't such a d-bag.

Guy's a physical freak. There's no doubt about that. I just hope he gets better between the ears this year. I think the calming presence of Scuderi and the need for a mentor for Despres will do wonders for him.
He just comes off as one. Maybe he just hates the media.
Then you got Martin aswell. Letang might turn into a complete beast and win several Norris's. Then again for that contract, he better!

I don't think there is anything he could have said in those interviews that wouldn't piss people off.
This is the style of training I've done for the last 2 years and every time I watch his workouts I'm just astonished. It's beyond ridiculous. He explodes at such a high level that very few can match. I know he's a professional athlete, but I can almost guarantee you very few can get in the gym and do what he does. It's ridiculous. The guy is a freak of nature.
If he could figure out the mental part of the game... we have a one of the best dmen in the league on our team. But he HAS to play smarter.
Have you tried that Jacob's Ladder? Thing looks insane, haha.
I actually think that's one of the easier things he's doing. But at that pace... it just becomes absurd. So many people would fall right off or not be able to maintain that length of top speed.
I've been on it a lot. I'm going to have to try running on it like that and see what happens. I doubt it will be good.
What surprises me is his back strength/upper body explosiveness. If he put half the dedication into his mental game, we'd be sitting on a gem.
But that's the thing. He does spend quite a bit of time reviewing tape and trying to improve weaker points in his game.
I think he's just an idiot occasionally.
I wasn't talking about these videos...Just in general...
I don't think I've ever heard of anyone who has met or known Letang personally who has said he was anything but a great guy. Here is just one example of a twitter reply to the workout video:
