It’s been two-and-a-half seasons since Phil Kessel left the Toronto Maple Leafs, and if you’ve been living under a rock, quite a bit has happened over that time span.
Kessel currently sits fourth in NHL scoring with 66 points heading into Saturday night’s game against his former team. As noted in the graphic above, Phil doesn’t really seem to care whether he wins the trophy for the NHL’s top point producer.
