Phil Kessel Narrowed His Potential Teams Down to Two and is On the Verge of Signing
While the season got underway, the rumours surrounding Phil Kessel's next contract died down. Now, however, they are heating up as he is on the verge of picking between two teams.
Phil Kessel Deciding Between Two Teams and Both Are in Serious Talks of Signing Him
Phil Kessel could definitely be the missing puzzle piece for a team looking to add some depth to their lineup while making a long push into the playoffs this year. The veteran winger brings a lot to the table, including three Stanley Cup Championships, nearly 1300 games played, and an excellent attitude in the locker room that brings guys together.
Whoever signs him is likely getting a hall-of-Famer at a significant discount.

Phil Kessel Sweepstakes Have Been Narrowed Down to Two
Now, it appears the teams who might potentially nab Kessel have been narrowed down to two serious contenders, who are just looking to move money around to make a deal work, NHL insider David Pagnotta reports.
Kessel has two legitimate options right now that are both contingent on those teams moving out money before bringing him in.
My understanding is Kessel is healthy and ready to join a team as soon as a deal can be ironed out. Unfortunately, for him, he has to play the waiting game
