Pretty poorly constructed story. Someone commented that you have included nothing about the season Kessel is having. All you've done to try and prove a point is make an assumption (Toronto will finish in the bottom five overall) and go back on previous draft years where bona fide superstars have been drafted. What you should have done is mention the players that will potentially be available in the next couple drafts. It's pretty obvious that they were thinking that they locked up a 40 goal scorer - and it looks like they've done just that right now. Their number one problem is goal tending. Kessel is far from a problem.
