[TRADE] Kessel to Arizona

[lucafen4]

it clearly relates to pre-season -individual game tickets or small game packages.
94% of season ticket holders have renewed for 19/20 as well - the highest renewal rate since '04.

I can see most tickets being sold the week of a game. As prices come down leading up to it and it becomes a 'something to do this week' thing.

If Keller steps up this year, they'll have a second star emerging on this team.

I sure hope he does...and not only because I've been trying to acquire him.

I'll take Keller for 70+ Alex

If you expect Keller to get 70+, and Kessel not far behind I'm sure, where do you see Schmaltz?

If they line up Keller-Schmaltz-Kessel, and those three guys are prominently featured on PP1 as well, I see no reason why all three can't push 70+ points. I think Kessel will be closer to 80, Keller closer to 70, with Schmaltz bringing up the rear around 60-65.

Seems about right.

It doesn't make Arz an offensive juggernaut but they'll be a bigger threat to score game in game out

If Raanta is and stays healthy this is a playoff team.

If Kuemper offers the same level of back up as last year... even without Raanta - they're a playoff team

They're going to need two strong goalies

[lucafen4]

They were a top 10 team in goals against last year and a lot of players missed significant chunks of time, which couldn't have helped.

Problem was, they were 6th worst in goals for.

That’s what I’m saying. With two good healthy goalies (and Raanta has a much better chance of staying that way with a dependable back up) and another year of experience on a couple of young D and OEL I like this team to improve the GA a lot. And the scoring got better. They should be selling more tickets.

[ericdaoust]

I don't think Kuemper will be as good this time, so yeah they'll need both guys to keep their GAA down. It's possible their scoring increases and their goalies just aren't at the same level, and the team ultimately misses the playoffs as a result.

Phil Kessel's home is for sale in Pitts...

For the Yotes sake, one hopes the home has been packed and this is minimal staging

Like he’s not taking the trade seriously and his stuff isn’t in a U-haul ready to leave? I don’t get it. He’s a multi millionaire pro athlete. He has people for all that. I don’t think the Arizona organization is worried that he’s not going to be ready to move to AZ on time.

Is Kessel rich enough to be considered eccentric or is he just a weirdo like the rest of us?
