Kessel was the only player that made the Leafs a somewhat watchable team even when they were godawful. He only missed 12 games in his first season with the Leafs because of a shoulder injury. After that he dressed for every single game the entire six years he spent with the team. He put in work. He was our highest scorer in every area. And despite all the bulltrout he put up with from ridiculous Leafs "fans" like yourself, he always showed up and always gave it his best effort.
The dude loves Toronto. He brought the Stanley Cup to the Sick Kids hospital for christ's sake. He beat cancer. He was our best player for six years.
Phil Kessel is anything but a loser. And I'm kind of disgusted that someone who thinks they're a Leafs fan would call him that.
