I avoided writing about the Phil Kessel Saga all summer, and did a good job of ignoring it. The only time I talked about it is when somebody asks me what is going on with Kessel or if it comes up in conversation with other Bruins fans. Otherwise, I haven't batted an eyelash.
That ends today. It's no longer summer.
The media storm kicked up quite a bit overnight. There...

These stories and much more after the jump.

Being a Sioux fan people are naturally probably starting to wonder why I am so interesting in Phil Kessel and his contract negotiation with the Boston Bruins. I know he played for the much despised Golden Gophers for a season before he left for the NHL. Frankly I wouldn't be as interested in this if he didn’t play for my favorite NHL the Boston Bruins. That being said, as a...

from Kevin Paul Dupont of Bruins Blog,
Phil Kessel has made it clear that he doesn’t intend to negotiate any longer with the Bruins, his Toronto-based agent in recent days informing the Boston front office that the right winger’s priority instead is to sign a free-agent offer sheet with one of the league’s 29 other teams.

1. Phil Kessel will be a Maple Leaf. Burke wants him and Kessel wants to wear the blue and white. Burke is trying his hardest to acquire the skilled winger via trade, but if the Bruins decide to deal him elsewhere, the Leafs will immediately put an offer sheet in. This is too good of a fit for the Leafs to miss out on.2. Heatley will be traded before the season starts. He'...

Face it, there's nowhere left to hide. No matter how far you run, or how large of a rock you discover to seek shelter under, Phil Kessel will find you. Phil Kessel will crawl inside your brain. Phil Kessel will leave you curled up in the fetal position in the corner of a windowless room, shouting things to yourself like....

Some random thoughts to ponder before my official 09/10 return on Monday.
The name Redfield T. Baum is becoming legendary like Kenesaw Mountain Landis. Both for the wrong reasons. My take on both, move the Coyotes for the Love of God, and Buck Weaver, only innocent man 90 years ago of the eight. Re-Instate Buck.
Marc Savard assisted on 22 of Phil Kessel's 36 goals last...
