kessel's fine. he's been as advertised, and puts up points consistently on the team. not every player is a 2 way guy.
i actually lay this entire fiasco on the shoulders of this amateur coach. if he doesn't know what type of info is worth stating to people at public events then he's not fit to be a coach of a media hungry market like toronto.
i realize he was at a coaching clinic, but does the story lose any impact for whatever the heck his point/lesson was, if he just left the player name out of it? If his point was that a big difference about coaching at the NHL level vs any other is that you're dealing with million dollar investments, and they aren't as easy to change in their ways as in other leagues, keeping kessel's name out of hte story would have had the same frigin effect.
this spatt dude seems like an idiot. way to get your career, and a team's training camp out on the right foot. curious how long this guy stays in the nhl.
