Yeah Phil your streak is over. I don't see you playing all 82 anytime soon.

Phil Kessel Wants To Continue Playing, Not Concerned About Ironman Streak

NHL ironman Phil Kessel is willing to jeopardize his streak in hopes of landing a contract for this season.

He scored 52 points just two years ago and 43 in 56 the year before. If I was a tanking team I'd definitely sign him to a one year deal, pump up his value with PP time and then ship him out at the deadline for a 2nd round pick.

I would much rather have him as an option for roster fill than Mathieu Olivier.

Looks like the Blues top pick won't be playing in North America this year.

Wonder if the Flyers were hoping for this so a certain young phenom can tell the KHL to fuck off and start playing Philly.

Just send Torts over, he can solve the issue as him and Putin have the same personality.

Starting to get the itch for the season to start again. But the news wire is dead, so wonder if you all think these are HoF stats:
Games Goals Assists Points PIM Playoffs(same stats)

NHL Totals

1286

413

579

992

402

100

34

49

83

24

If this player gets a contract (now you know who it is) and can find 8 more points, they will have 400+ goals, 1000 points. No trophies to speak of.

HoF-worthy or just a nice career?

does he have any international medals? i think the Sedins are in partly because of their points, longevity, commitment to the game and international success. but they also have individual hardware.

Worth every penny of it.

No but he has three Cups and was instrumental in two of them. I also think the Sedins are in in large part because one has a Hart and both have Art Ross trophies and there's nobody with an Art Ross to date that isn't in the Hall.

The answer is no, he's not a HHOF'er, but given that the HHOF's entrance requirements are lax as hell at this point I'd say he's 50-50.
