Against most logic, reports tying Phil Kessel to the Arizona Coyotes persist

It’s pretty quiet in Penguins’ land right now, but the Trib still found Jeremy Roenick talking a little Phil Kessel. JR’s take is that Kessel is angling to arrive in Arizona.

“I know where he wants to go and we’ll see if he gets that option,” Roenick told 550 AM in Buffalo. “He does want to go west. There is one team that he does want to go play for, and I don’t think he’ll stand for anything less. He’ll stay in Pittsburgh and his contract now and be happy with it or not be happy with it or they’ll trade him to the team that he wants to go to.
