Which ppl...young kids or legit hockey ppl

[Eagles4Lyfe]

Woah wth Kessel?? He's the last guy I expected to be unhappy

[Lavy16]

Yikes this kessel story is getting crazy. some ppl on twitter are saying he wont resign with Toronto.

I called this the second Burke hired Carlyle as the coach...they better get a lot in return for Kessel or the Leafs will remain the laughing stock of the league

It started out as a bunch of PPP guys arguing with others on who was better; Nash or Kessel and it started trending. Thats all. No real story.

[Lavy16]

Kessel to Columbus for the #2 pick, Derek Dorsett and a 2nd in 2013

[ktownguy31]

Oh ok i follow those guys...they were just making fun of ppl who think nash is better then kessel hahs..i saw that earlier this morning

I think it was hockeybreak, but no one from tsn or snet has said anything

dregs is the one starting this. he said that kessel has become unhappy and CBJ were looking at JVR and Kessel.

I'll see if i can find the quotes.

EDIT: says it he was on TSN radio today. anyone hear/confirm that he spoke about nash today?

[TravisB]

I heard the clip this afternoon.
Dregs said he thinks Kessel may become unhappy with the lack of success and media spotlight. Now it's "Kessel is unhappy and wants out".....

[ktownguy31]

So ppl basically spun his words to what they want it to be?

[Tito Santana]

I love watching people make mountains out of mole hills.

[TravisB]

Yeah. Someone has an opinion so it must be true.

never heard him on the radio. i saw the tweets about it and posted it. I found a website that had the transcript but when i opened the site my computer crashed (it was pensionplanpuppets.com if you want to avoid it).

anyway this next week should be interesting. Nash could be done before the draft AND Howson said he is open to trading down but would like to stay in the top-10. my guess is he really wants Forsberg, who will be a nice replacment for nash in about 2-3 years.

[Halladay]

I want no part of Nash. If we deal our pick for him I'll lose my mind.
