As Phil Kessel makes his much ballyhooed return to the ice in a new uniform, it’s time for us to dive back into the fantasy hockey realm ourselves.

I remember the moment quite vividly. It was my first draft of the 09 season, I had the 2nd pick and I knew AP was going 1st overall. My buddy with the 1st pick is a huge Raiders fan (insert 1 of 1,000,000 Raiders chirps here) and even I knew […]
