Phil Kessel at the golf course

[bobrules]

Phil Kessel took part in the John Daly Skins Game on Monday. Leafs TV was there and caught up with Phil who is not only one talented hockey player but a pretty good golfer.

Oh look, a Leaf at a golf course.

Lol, he even swings awkward. Love this guy.

 

[Diatomic]

That video made me smile. Phil seems genuinely so happy, and his interviews are always view worthy.

 

[threeGo]

How many times does Kessel have say "it's for fun".

If you didn't know who Kessel was, you'd never think he was an athlete.

Phil should remake this commercial for the 21st century

 

[Leafidelity]

I've heard Phil can really crush a ball. 275 yards is pretty good.

Someone is bound to say it, as it's always mentioned each offseason.... and I hate it to be me, but..... this year in particular, he looks fat, and I only say this because he actually looks more fat than he normally does at this time in the offseason. Hopefully it won't effect his game, like it hasn't in the past.

Henny is such a creep, I couldn't stop laughing. He's awesome.

Kessel could look 300 pounds for all I care. As long as he maintains or even improves his play I don't really care.

Why change now? It's obviously working for him.

agreed. his chin/neck fat is out of control. he needs to lay off the cookies or whatever he's gobbling down.

if eakins was the head coach here, i doubt kessel would pass the physical here. his body fat seems to be above 20% (which is a bit much for a hockey player).

maybe he'll shed the fat at training camp?

Maybe he just has a chubby face. Sometimes it's just genetics. It's easier to trim off fat from your gut than it is in your face.

 

[GordieHoweHatTrick]

As long as he has strength in his legs. The upper body fat is just extra weight to throw around. Love the guy

I died laughing while watching that lol. Phils the greatest. Also Henny makes for a hilariously good golf commentator

 

[BlueStorm]

I've heard Phil can really crush a ball. 275 yards is pretty good.

If he could complete his back swing he would hit it 350. 275 is not bad with that back swing, lots of power there. When I was his age I was hitting persimmon woods further lol. He's a little better on the ice than me though!

I don't know about balls, but he's certainly good at crushing Stanley Cup dreams

But he looks way fatter in the face than normal. It's a clear indication that he's put on a pound or two since the season, which is an indication of his off season regimen.

Sarcasm?

Which is an indication of absolutely nothing except your imagination considering his season-to-season excellence.

I know, right !?!

We don't know what next season holds.

 

[GalacticaActual]

People should just accept that this guy will never look like Adonis. He has a naturally pudgy face. What matters is that every single year he has shown improvements. He used to be a 30-goal, 60-point guy, now he has shown that he can easily hit 35+ goals and 82 points per season. He is our absolute best player, and the Leafs are lucky to have him.

Fat Kessel is best Kessel. I love our little fatso.
