I wouldn't necessarily agree with that - if I found a good unique armour that would do me for a Lionheart I might socket it
Similarly a superior weapon with 15% ed already there would be great.
There is also the option of deliberately rushing your mules for the socket quests (and a Hellforge drop) which should give you spare socketings
Similarly anything with + skills on might be a contender. A +3 Meteor +3 Fire Mastery staff would be +6/+6 with Leaf
The table of max sockets is here:
http://www.diabloii.net/items/sockets.shtml
Note that you are not guaranteed the maximum - it's stated as +/- 1
It needs to be read against the listing of what is the max for any specific item (not all shields can have 4 sockets for instance)
