The overwhelming suggested of value and destination for Phil Kessel is Nashville, with a return of Jones, Fiala and a pick. That is beyond insane. Toronto's rebuild is going to go so incredibly badly, if the fans are not on board what will actually happen.
I actually saw a discussion on a Rangers rumour, where the fan's perspective in Toronto was that they should turn down any Rangers offer because they couldn't produce the value of Seth Jones and a 1st.
This next year is going to be Oilers awesome.

I still remember the days when Oilers fans were positive Gagner would fetch a 1st round pick and he ultimately his return was a player that was bound for waivers/buyout.
