Newsbreakers
December 4, 2008
Phil Kessel scored two more goals in Thursday's 3-1 win over the Lightning.

Our View:Kessel has 15 goals in 25 games this year and is surprisingly available in about 10 percent of leagues. He won't last long on the waiver wire at this rate though.
November 26, 2008
Phil Kessel scored his 11th goal of the year Wednesday night but the Bruins fell to the Sabres, 3-2.

Our View:Kessel only scored 19 goals last year but in 2008 he has now scored 11 in only 22 games.
October 21, 2008
Phil Kessel scored his sixth goal in six games as the Bruins fell to Buffalo in a shootout on Tuesday.

Our View:He had just 19 in 82 games last season but should eclipse that mark by a healthy margin this season.
October 20, 2008
Forward Phil Kessel scored his fifth goal of the season in Monday's shootout loss to the Penguins.

Our View:Kessel still has a long way to go to live up to those old Sid Crosby comparisons, but he is off to an excellent start this year.
October 18, 2008
Phil Kessel scored two goals and an assist in Saturday's 4-2 win over Ottawa.

Our View:Kessel has racked up four goals over four games, with one assist. Kessel notched 19 goals over 82 games last season, and has a realistic shot at 30 in 2008, as he continues to earn more ice time.
September 27, 2008
Phil Kessel missed Firday night's game with a sore hip flexor according to the Boston Globe. The injury is not believed to be serious.

Our View:Kessel scored 11 goals and 29 points as a rookie, and upped those totals to 19 goals and 37 last year. The fifth overall selection in 2006, Kessel should have another gear (as he showed late in the year last season), now it's just a matter of whether or not he can consistently bring it.
September 15, 2008
Phil Kessel was extremely inconsistent last year as a 20 year old, and the club will need to decide this season if he is a building block of the franchise or merely a solid NHL skater, according to the Boston Herald.

Our View:Kessel scored 11 goals and 29 points as a rookie, and upped those totals to 19 goals and 37 last year. The fifth overall selection in 2006, Kessel should have another gear (as he showed late in the year last season), now it's just a matter of whether or not he can consistently bring it.
May 4, 2008
Phil Kessel had a hat trick in Team USA's 5-1 win over Slovenia on Sunday, the AP reports.

Our View:It's no secret that Kessel has a ton of potential. He is still only 20, and hopefully he can use a strong summer to vault himself up the fantasy rankings next season.
April 19, 2008
Coming back from being a healthy scratch, Phil Kessel scored two goals in Game 6 top help force a Game 7 with the Canadiens.

Our View:Kessel also scored a goal in the last game and now has three goals in two games after being a healthy scratch for three games. What a comeback for the kid.
April 17, 2008
Phil Kessel may return to action tonight, according to The Boston Globe. Kessel notably assisted on Boston's only goal in Game 1, but was a healthy scratch the last three games. He sat because the team wanted more grit to battle Montreal, but now they need to shake up the offense.

Our View:He scored 37 points in the regular season, with three game-winning goals to his credit. He should spark the offense if he ultimately returns tonight.
April 4, 2008
Phil Kessel netted his 19th goal of the season Friday, a tally that proved to be the game-winner against the Senators and propel the Bruins into the playoffs. Kessel took just a small step forward in production this year, but he's still just 19 and will be a start in due time.
March 27, 2008
Phil Kessel scored one goal and one assist in Boston's 4-2 win over Vancouver on Thursday night. He has now scored a goal in back-to-back games and has 36 points for season.
