I have a question. Bobby Ryan vs. Phil Kessel, who do you prefer? Now I suppose the numbers would suggest Kessel is the better play because he has the better numbers and has been one of the league leaders in points in recent years but to me that has a lot to do with how Kessel is used in Toronto. Kessel has been all the Leafs have had to lean on since being traded there. Even in Ottawa last season I've liked the more balanced offense with Jason Spezza, Clarke MacArthur and Kyle Turris. In Anaheim Ryan obviously had Getzlaf, Perry and Selanne to play behind. Now this isn't a question because I have interest in Ryan but how simular he seems to me to Kessel. Would Ryan be as successful in Toronto?
Insults need not apply.

In my opinion, no. Kessel is hands down the better player over Ryan.
