With The Toronto Maple Leafs announcing Randy Carlyle's firing on Monday, the hockey world has been saturated with opinions  on where the Leafs should go from here. Carlyle's firing was just the first of many upcoming moves in Toronto and that starts with the players on the team. Somehow through all the finger pointing, the attention shifted to Phil Kessel. Toronto Star reporter Dave Feschuk tried very hard to get a rise out of Kessel in an interview on Monday. Kessel referred to the Feschuk as "such an idiot" after a question about his coachability. Despite being a perennial top ten goal scorer in the NHL, the amount of flack that Kessel has to take from the Toronto media and fans must be excruciating. Boston Bruins fans never treated Kessel that way. He was one of the better players on our team and we celebrated him for it. There are many stars in this league who are purely offensive minded. Kessel is one of them and that is not likely to change. Leafs fans need to wake up and stop pretending that this guy is anything but a pure goal scorer. Here is one example of how the Bruins showed their appreciation for Kessel. Something Kessel is in need of at the moment.
