Rabid Ranger said:Actually, I doubt there are all that many people who have seen Kessel play. There's a herd mentality here where one person (usually of dubious reliability) starts an anti- (name the player) chant and the sheep follow. I've seen every Gopher game (that's been televised) and I can say with 100% certainty that most of the negative comments being expressed about Kessel are inaccurate (such as his hockey sense and passing ability).
He did play in the world juniors last year.......which does happen to be one of the most highly watched junior events of the year.....if not the most watched.....id be willing to bet that most people here have seen him play, likely more than once.
