Arizona Coyotes Journey to the desert : Phil Kessel

Phil Kessel has had a very successful long career. He has played for teams like the Boston Bruins, Toronto Maple Leafs, Pittsburgh Penguins, and now the Arizona Coyotes. Kessel has scored some 359 goals over the course of his NHL career. It is nice to see him finally end up in Arizona.

To get to Arizona, Kessel was traded from Boston to Toronto, then from Toronto to Pittsburgh, then from Pittsburgh to Arizona. Kessel broke into the league at the age of 19 years old for the Boston Bruins.

In his time in Boston Kessel, a fifth overall draft pick in 2006, put up 126 points.
