    I wonder if Boring Sean Monahan will have anything to say about Kessel.
    Probably not.

    That was, perhaps, the most boneheaded attempt at a campaign any pro sports team has ever tried. A close 2nd was the Senators with their "Gladiator" intro. That still makes me lmao.

    A lot of people haven't figured out how to use Twitter properly yet...

    Hint: player with bad rep should not be doing a public Q&A where fans from all teams can chime in.

    The gladiator was awesome though in a trainwreck kind of way... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Gi5nCd1ZVrw

    Even if they got Gerard Butler, I'd still giggle.

    When I'm having a shitty day, I can always watch this and have a laugh.

    Yea Kessel should have said "except maybe playoff hockey" in his original tweet then he would have been a hero. People gotta chillax though.
