hf101 Posted May 11, 2016 Share Posted May 11, 2016 Kessel was the #1 star of Game 6 after scoring two goals and adding an assist on the OT winner. Kessel now leads the Penguins with 12 points through 11 playoff games. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MaineFlyFan Posted May 11, 2016 Share Posted May 11, 2016 I'll probably vomit in my mouth a little after typing this but I got to hand it to the pens.....their depth is showing right now. That Bonino line (or whoever the hell he is) certainly made the difference in that series! The caps did a good job of shutting down Sid and Malkin but forgot about Bonino and Kessel and the rest of the overachievers!! nice series win.

JagerMeister Posted May 11, 2016 Share Posted May 11, 2016 @notfondajane My team? The Panthers? Oh dont you worry about us, we have a future selke winner with potential ppg production, a future norris candidate and an exceptional depth full of youth. Were eliminated and kicking ass next year, just you wait Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That being said, we're not ones to brag or anything(Okay, I almost had a straight face for that). As for Kessel, he's playing great, but hardly Conn Smyth material. He has some good numbers, but his all around play will never put him on that chart unless he doubles everyone else in scoring. To be honest, if I had a pick for MVP on the Pens right now it would be Hagelin. The man has simply no end to the energy in any zone, and is a key on the PK and second PP unit. Sure he does not have the numbers, but 4g 4a for 8 pts in 11 gms is not shabby. Every time he hits the ice, you can see him make a difference. Kessel, he makes a difference in the offensive half, but you rarely notice him in the defensive half. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SkyHigh30 Posted May 11, 2016 Share Posted May 11, 2016 @notfondajaneI think if Marc Andre Fleury would have played the series he'd be picking out his favorite Putter instead of his favorite Goalie Stick right now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JagerMeister Posted May 11, 2016 Share Posted May 11, 2016 @Podein25 Yeah.... He's quickly becoming one of my favourite players, he already had excellent defensive awareness in his first year in the NHL. Maybe im being a hyperbolic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not necessarily, I'm also a huge fan, have watched his career since he was 15. I was just confirming that's who you had in mind. Plus, I enjoy hijacking a Kessel thread Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(yup.....I taste bile) When they moved Bonino(or whoever he is) up to play with Hagelin and Kessel when Malkin went down, that line clicked and played better than when Malkin was there. When Malkin came back, they didn't touch the HBK line(props to Sullivan) and instead shifted Malkin to play with Kunitz and Fehr. With teams focusing on Crosby and Malkin, the HBK line has had a pretty phenomenal run. Can't break them up now, that would be simply Bylsmatic.

Kessel now leads the Penguins with 12 points through 11 playoff games. I'd say it's a bit early to nominate him for the Conn. Honestly, I think Nikita Kucherov has been just as good, if not better, than Kessel to this point. I suppose the TB-Pit series will go a long way to determining who will be more valuable to his team since they will be going head to head. Also, some very nice performances out West too...Burns, Spezza, Benn, Pavelski, just off the top of my head. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Totally agree with you! I'm hoping the Pens could pull off a trade with the Flyers with Marc as the center piece! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
