I guess poor wording, the point was that Kessel's contract wouldn't bring him to the same age as Perry and Getzlaf. I didn't realize Kessel's birthday was so soon so the contract would still bring him to 33-34 but that's still not as bad as Getzlaf and Perry contracts that will see them turn 36 by the time they expire.
