Third line center that scored only 10 goals last year. He is not worth the price offered. As a Rookie, he was not a Crosby or Ovechkin. Not even one of the top 20 Rookies. That's why you didn't hear of him - there were at least another 20 guys you would have heard of first. But yeah, the word is Vancouver is going to match it and keep him. Vancouver should let him go and use the money to sign Carter.

Kesler was Vancouver's 2003 first round pick. He's from Detroit, I think Clarke figures he could be a better player if he is closer to home.

Bianca: Where in Michigan? Possibly Detroit, Michigan??? If not, you need to go and Correct TSN and Yahoo Sports. That's where they list him as from.
