Could Kesler be the odd man out?

Give the guy some half decent SECOND LINE wingers and I'm sure he'd excel. He's not a winger and looks uncomfortable taking on that role on the Sedin's line.

Shouldn't he be making his linemates, instead of relying on them?

It's not a coincidence that Higgins plays 10x better when he's not playing with Kesler.

It's not a coincidence that Kesler played 10x better when he was playing with Samuelsson/Raymond/Sundin either. The guy needs skilled play making wingers in order to succeed playing his game. He shouldn't rely on them per se but chemistry is a big factor in getting Kesler going. There is obviously none between him and the rest of our bottom six. Burrows is the only one who has the skill to ride his wing and succeed.

Not to beat a dead horse but Grabner and Raymond had chemistry with him. Burrows always had chemistry with Ryan.

I like these pairings

Sedin Sedin

Burr Kes

Kass Shredder

BoHo Shink

I think there is natural chemistry in these four pairings. :)

Now has 7 goals, 3 assists in 13 games, 7 points in the last 4 games. All the Kesler detractors have mysteriously disappeared.

quick Gillis! Trade Kesler for Rome before it's too late!

on the more serious note, those ppl are probably waiting for the right chance to strike at our star players again.. Probably talk how we should trade away Daniel or let the Sedins go because t hey will not hit 120 points again
