TSN were showing Kessel's goals with Pitt in the preseason and how dome were from tip ins from passes from Sid where he redirected the pass into the net.
They then said that all of last year, Kessel had only one tip I goal like that. The one thing Kessel can go is THINK like an elite scorer which is a good match for Sid or Malkin.
But Kessel also likes to lead rushes with the puck so there could be some issues that arise that way too.
IMO, Kessel gets 40+ and helps their PP.
I agree. I think Kessel has a big year scoring goals this year barring injury. Whether that is enough to make Pitt significantly better taking into consideration their issues on defense is questionable. I think they end up where they were last year, a playoff team that doesn't necessarily worry the better teams making the playoffs.
