I think he rather retire than come back to TML

Canucks aren't paying for Jarnkrok. We don't need wingers and we don't have the cap space.

Phil would rather give up hot dogs than play in Toronto again.

Maybe Toronto sweetens the deal, lifetime supply for schneiders hot dogs.

His favourite hot dog stand is here tho lol

Lol let’s not get too crazy here

Lol look up the vid of dion phaneuf telling phil he’s had enough cookies, one of my favourite vids ever

Hilarious! 🤣

Oh I don't know about that! He filled up the Cup with hot dogs both years he won Cups in Pittsburgh! Took the Cup to Toronto to celebrate! 🤣

I wonder if he invited his best pal, Steve Simmons? 😁

I always respected Phil for being himself. He became one of my favourite players when he stuck up for Dion Phaneuf. He made me laugh how he handled coach Randy Carlyle.

"Yes Randy. Ok Randy. Thanks Randy."

🤣

He takes the cup to Toronto to celebrate and fills it with hot dogs as a big F U to the Leafs and the Toronto media for 6 years of verbal abuse he suffered and everyone saying Toronto could never win with Phil Kessel on the team because he's a hot dog eating bum.

Cup count since the trade:
Phil Kessel - 3
Toronto Maple Leafs - 0

If there's one thing Phil hates more than his love for hot dogs, it's the Toronto media.

Phil was never going to be a franchise player for any team. He was the perfect complimentary supporting star like Marian Hossa.

That's why Phil was a perfect fit in Pittsburgh. The perfect #3 guy to Sid and Geno. How good was that HBK line?

Brian Burke tried fast tracking the Leafs into Cup contenders. He tried building his team around Dion Phaneuf and Kessel. Phaneuf was similar to Phil. Not suited to be the #1 guy. But a perfect #2D.

I hated hearing Leafs fans piling on those 2 players all the time. They were just copying what the moron tv "experts" were telling them..

One time I heard a blowhard Leafs fan blathering on and on about Phil Kessel. I kid you not. This guy looked like a fatter version of Joe Bowen. They HAD to be related. Same voice. Same cadence.

Only I always liked Joe Bowen. This fat, obnoxious Doppelganger was annoying. He didn't have an original thought in his body. So he says to another Leafs fan "Phil Kessel will never win a Stanley Cup because Phil Kessel is all about me, me and me."

Well I had enough and yelled at the guy for a good 5 minutes. I told him to stop trying to look and sound like Joe Bowen. I told him how ridiculous he sounded. And I said there's nothing wrong with Phil Kessel. His job is to score goals. Does he score goals? Yes.

I then told him he'd win a Cup somewhere else. He just needed to get out of Toronto. I was wrong of course. Kessel has won 3 Cups since then.

Not I wish I could see that fat **** Doppelganger Joe Bowen now. All these clowns do is copy TSN and Sportsnet and shows like Overdrive and pretend it's their own takes.

Drives me up the wall! Sorry for the rant! 😁

Fat couch potatoes who criticize pro athletes about their performances when they couldn't last 1 shift in the NHL themselves without getting destroyed are very annoying.

I always remind myself of that when criticizing professional hockey players. Because that's exactly what I am. A fat couch potato. Well at least compared to NHL players I am.

Phil is one of my favourite Leafs of all time, favourite player growing up, but I think I'm probably in the minority on my Toronto Phil love
