from Jonas Siegel of am640,
Phil Kessel is taunting the possibility.
He taunts it with a no-look pass.

He taunts it with his bursts of speed.
But make no mistake that for all the taunting possibilities, the Leafs would be simply foolish to rush Kessel back this soon.

In regards to the ribiero incident, let me say first of that i don’t really like his style of play, but i don’t think he was acting there. It seemed like he was trying to get ready for impact, but the stick just ended up not hitting him. it was a bad call by the refs, for sure, but i dont think he was acting
