Kris Letang and son have a great 2020 All-Star weekend in St. Louis
Kris Letang and his son Alex were the highlight of the 2020 All-Star weekend in St. Louis. Alex was alongside his father for media interviews, skills competition, and other events. It was absolutely adorable to see him meet other NHL players and ask them for their autographs.
The best part of the weekend, was listening to Alex’s interviews and Pensinsidescoop’s MC updates of his experience! Alex, like his father, is so well spoken and has great love for the sport of hockey!
The Metro fell to the Atlantic in the first round and was eliminated – Game Recap

Kris Letang on bringing his son to #NHLAllStar: “It means a lot. Something I thought about was the fact that maybe one day I will not have a chance to go. This year was good timing. He is well-aware of what’s going on and loves hockey.” – Source

Alex Letang on playing in the NHL: “I’ll take my Dad’s place. If my dad’s still playing, I’ll take somebody else’s places. And if my dad’s not, I’m taking my dad’s place. I’m defense – that way my dad’s gonna do the password and I’ll just get in.” pic.twitter.com/FQC9CjvaRh

Alex Letang: “I would be 58 if my dad is not playing. If Crosby stops playing, I’ll be the number of Crosby. 87 or 58. I want more to be 58, but if my dad’s still playing, I’ll be 87.”@Letang_58: “Fair enough. Sid, retire. Tell Sid retire. Don’t say that — we still need him.” pic.twitter.com/vjkFdpk0HF
