Eh,.at 750k for most there's few downsides (at least the time of the discussion).
When he was on his game he has the ability to be a borderline top six guy offensively. Problem was he was absolutely atrocious defensively and was prone to multiple brain farts.

He always seemed to have a cloud of being a problem child dating back to his Montreal days and his returns were so marginal... glad he didn't stay on.
Oleksaik for Nylander straight up from someone another thread couldn’t have been a leafs fan brutal

That's just trollbait. The guy was traded twice in his career - both for 4th round picks, and then was left unprotected in the expansion draft.

Ohhhhh man! With who they have in charge now, Penguins fans have NO IDEA the kind of pain that's going to be in store for them in the coming years. LMFAO.
Sparks is a pretty good AHL goalie, so I don't think Wilkes-Barre Penguins fans have much to worry about.

Does he still own property here? What's the actual reason for bringing the cup back here? I doubt he's that petty especially after all this time.

Damn Kessel married a Torontonian? Damn didn't know that
‘Now I’m a three-timer’: Phil Kessel cherishes another Cup, vows to keep playing
After making the playoffs just three times in his first nine years, Phil Kessel now has three rings. And he's not done yet. "Back in my Toronto days, they didn’t think I could win, right? Now I'm a three-timer."
LAS VEGAS – Phil Kessel warns that he can’t guarantee that his daughter, Kapri, will look at the camera.
But, sure, he’ll pose for a photograph with longtime girlfriend Sandra Pereira and their toddler girl on the night of his third Stanley Cup victory.
Asked what he’ll take away about this charmed third one, Kessel motions across the chewed-up ice to the cute 15-month-old girl wearing a No. 8 DADDY Vegas Golden Knights sweater.
“Obviously, I’m gonna remember my kid, you know?” Kessel said. “My first two, she wasn't around, so it’s special for her. And hopefully get enough pictures and get her with the Cup, and it's a great moment, right? So, that's about it, you know?”
In Vegas, he was a glue guy on a one-year discount deal, trying to stick in the lineup and carving a niche.
“But I was fortunate to play here all year long, and we had a great group of guys and obviously a really good team, and we got it done,” said Kessel, now a three-time Cup champ.
After making the playoffs just three times in his first nine years, did Kessel ever imagine he’d earn three rings?
“You know what? You never know if you're ever gonna get a chance to win," he said. "And I had 10 years in, I got the first chance, and it’s special, every one. And I don't know, you know?”
Kessel paused, then slaps a Toronto-based reporter on the shoulder and lets loose a hearty, high-pitched laugh from under his thick playoff beard.
“Back in my Toronto days, they didn’t think I could win, right? Now I'm a three-timer," he said. "So, remember that, right?”
Oh, I don’t think the city will forget.
There is no malice when Kessel makes his statement. He’s just happy.
And his teammates are happy for him.

If Kessel really wanted to Troll the city he would have arranged to get it on Tuesday and go to the Jays game.
