So how is that exactly relevant to Kessel being left off of that team due to his reputation? The argument that they made a bad decision or the team was bad is pretty irrelevant from the fact that Kessel was left off of a national team right after having a Conn Smythe worthy cup run. The point was that Kessel has a well established reputation of being a problem for coaches, and him getting left off a national team is a perfect example of that.
If it looks like a duck, quacks like a duck and walks like a duck, it's a duck.
You mean the team that was coached by a neanderthal and Kessel had a major role in eliminating that coach's team a few months earlier?
The same coach who called that players' team "arrogant"?
I mean I don't disagree that Kessel can be frustrating for coaches, but Torts leaving one of the best (if not the best) American players at home was a perfect example of cutting your nose off
