BREAKING: Stanley Cup Champion Phil Kessel To Sign In Chicago Replacing Corey Perry As Connor Bedard's Mentor? A New Report Emerges And Fans Are Excited
Today a new rumor has sparked major hype for a potential signing of Phil Kessel shortly.
Kessel To Replace Perry As Bedard's Mentor?
Today a new report by an anonymous source has indicated that Phil Kessel could find a new home in Chicago in the coming weeks.
This rumor has been sparked due to the termination of Corey Perry's contract and the injury to Taylor Hall. The Blackhawks are missing a scoring punch as well as a veteran presence up front. Kessel's 1,286 games played, 413 goals, and 992 points as well as his 1,064 consecutive games played streak would be a fantastic mentor to add.
This signing would allow the Blackhawks to fill a big hole in the lineup. With the Blackhawks out of contention for the playoffs most likely they could give Kessel what he is probably hoping for and continue his games-played streak. This could be a fantastic match for both sides if it does end up happening.
