Hockey fans couldn't help but compare Phil Kessel's pre-game photo to hilarious characters



Phil Kessel is a two-time Stanley Cup champion and a three-time NHL All-Star who has racked up 324 goals and 403 assists for 727 points in 902 games, but he still manages to end up as the butt of a lot of jokes.

The Pittsburgh Penguins paid a visit to the New York Rangers on Wednesday night. Ahead of puck drop between the two teams, the broadcast happened to show a shot of Kessel in the locker room before the game and you can bet hockey fans had a field day with the image.



From being compared to Beetlejuice to Harry Dunne, Jeff Bridges’ character from Dumb and Dumber, hockey fans did not hold back once the image made its rounds online. However, call him what you’d like but at the end of the day he’s still a two-time Stanley Cup champion.
