Maple Leafs star Phil Kessel could be first Toronto player to score 40 since Mat
Forty? Phil? Feasible?
While you won get Phil Kessel to open up about the chances of being the first Leaf since Mats Sundin to get 40 goals, teammates don mind laying a bet.
hard to really put a limit on him, said centre Tyler Bozak on Saturday as the jubilant Leafs marked Kessel hat trick against the Ottawa Senators that brought him to the 30 mark for this season. can get so streaky. Three goals tonight . who knows next game?
has always played well since he been here and done some great things for our team. I definitely wouldn doubt him getting 40 by any means. Big Four O has always been attainable for Kessel going back to his days in Boston, but as Bozak alluded, his coaches and mates have come to accept that his tap can turn off as fast as it gushes goals. He was held to three in 11 games early in the schedule and just one between the Winter Classic and Jan. 14, a replica Van Cleef jewelry seven game dry spell that mirrored one of the Leafs worst stints this season.
The difference in this elongated run is that Kessel whole line, with Bozak and James van Riemsdyk, is in healthy harmony. After combining for eight points in the 6 3 win over the Senators, they have 51 since New Year Day.
getting a lot of chances and a lot of bounces as well, Bozak said. will have stretches of games when things aren bouncing your way. I been able to get some points with Phil now and that been fun. put up 41 goals twice, in 1996 97 and 2001 02, both in 82 games. Kessel looks like he has lots of energy remaining and continues his charmed life where injuries or other setbacks are concerned. He and winger Mason Raymond are the only Leaf skaters with perfect attendance through 57 games, giving him 25 more to reach 40 and perhaps beyond. The only question mark is how much the travel to the Olympics takes out of him and van Riemsdyk later in the month when they play for Team USA in Sochi.
Coach Randy Carlyle and Bozak also praised the less obvious skills in Kessel offensive toolbox passing and playmaking. Until the lockout shortened season in 2013, Kessel assists were on a rising curve to 45. That number could be bettered this year, as he reached 31 on Saturday with a sweet centring pass to Bozak.
knew he find me, Bozak said of the play. I see an opening to a spot, he rarely going to miss it. He and JVR are both fun to play with. was up 2 0 and could have made it an ugly night for the home side until van Riemsdyk spotted Kessel going to the front of the net in the second period and provided a tricky pass that Kessel one Van Cleef ring copy timed in.
Carlyle said Kessel power play snap past Craig Anderson with six minutes to go in the third lit another fire under the bench.
you give him chances, he has the ability to find the back of the net. He a shooter, that for sure. There always been a lot of them around the league and he been classified as (a one dimensional) player, but we think he has more of an all around ability. He can distribute the puck, pass it, find people, do a lot more than just shoot. Leafs play in Florida and Tampa Bay to start this week, two teams Kessel did not score against in their visits to Toronto last week though he did have three assists. After six straight home wins, the club longest streak since 2006 07, the Leafs will try and get some mojo on the road. They have a record of 5 6 4 away from the ACC since late November and only recently started to get some valuable regulation wins against Eastern Conference playoff challengers.
have to build on the positives, Carlyle said. a coach, the negatives aren so much out in front of you when you win. But it important that we keep finding areas we can continue to improve on (own zone turnovers for a start).
tried to identify a few things. We don have a chance unless we competitive and skating. We replica Van Cleef & Arpels ring been through some rough stretches where we played some good games and still lost. It would been easy to have gone the other way, but we stuck with it. Kessel goals by season
