Kess telling James Neal he's a bum while single leg squatting 3 bills is exactly what I needed to hear

The media Was so fucking tone deaf on who Kessel really was in TO. They actually said he was DROLL and HUMOURLESS. That just goes to show you how clueless and uncool for lack of a better adjective some people can be. Kess has a great sense of humour and in fact is probably one of the funniest people in the game. Those hacks just didn’t get his dryness and weren’t catching the play he thought most of them were dorks. LOVE KESSEL

I'm happy he was able to win his cups with the Pens afterwards. Going to make his legacy even better when looking back at these stories.

When I was living in Malton, ON near Pearson Airport, I went to the Mr. Sub at Goreway and Derry all the time. One day, in walked Nazem Kadri, Colton Orr, Tyler Bozak and Phil Kessel! (Life long Leafs fan, almost choked on my sandwich lol). Anyway they all order their subs, and I'll never forget what Phil ordered: foot long pizza sub with mushrooms and jalapenos. I had to try so hard not to laugh because there's a Pizza Nova next door, and I imagined Phil trying so hard to convince the boys to get pizza and they were like "Jesus Christ Phil we're pro athletes, we're not eating pizza!" So Phil said fine fuck you guys and got a pizza sub instead 🤣

Phil cracks me up. He always looks like he is coming off a 3 day bender.

The stories about he drinks and eats resonate.

Apparently, cheese and frappachinos. Who knew? The first story about the light in the window? That must be well known, because in the now famous 2011 playoffs in Boston, a radio station went down at 6 a.m. with a speaker pointed up at his window and hassled him mercilessly to wake-up. All the same, he's a legend and a goofball, even a legendary goofball.

The first time I saw Kessel,no joke, I thought it was my best friend. (Obviously I knew a pro hockey player WASN'T my best friend) The similarities in size and stature and overall look were uncanny. I immediately told my friend that I just saw him on tv playing for hockey. He was confused until I said Phil Kessel. He laughed and agreed. Been a fan ever since. The dude looks the furthest from a professional, NHL caliber hockey player but it is an absolute legend AND has an Olympic hockey team sister, too! Born to play, I guess.
