Main Leafs Hockey Talk / Re: So, about Phil Kessel...

Funny, I think that comment wasn't one of the more atrocious in that article. Feschuk is quite the douchebag.
He just can't write on Kessel without mentioning his weight in some way or another. No evidence that he's ever looked into it further either.
You weight analytics guys... Kessel fails the eye test, man. Round face means fat, end of story.
And don't get me started on that other fatty, Charlie Brown.
French Fry Phil is done!

All kidding aside... Kessel is still an elite talent and can snipe goals like few others in the world. Kessel though is not a leader, not a character guy that can lift a team (or even a line apparently)... but on a deep contending team, he doesn't have to be, cause he will be centered by that guy, who will lift HIM up and make him the best Kessel he can be. Toronto has not been able to provide that for him, that's management's fail. His lack of effort this year though, and sometimes apparent lack of conditioning (this is apparently debatable), is his fail. I do think though, if he gets traded to a contender with a real center, watch him smash the 40 goal mark.
