Where will Kessel fall?
With Phil Kessel's stock dropping faster than ice melting in the Sahara, where do you think he'll end up? I believe Kessel will be taken by either the Pens at #2 overall (he'd compliment Crosby's playmaking abilities) or Boston at #5 ("Bergeron passes to Kessel" has a nice ring to it). Will he fall further than 5th? Might someone trade up to get him?

RE: Where will Kessel fall?
This draft is hard to pick who is better than who,
There are a lot of great players that have spefic talents,
That being said with Kessel I think it all depends on MAlkin.
IF Pens do het him under a cheap contract then phil will most likely go to boston, if not the pens would love to have him.
I Also heard another report from pittsburg that the pens would like to take Kessel any ways and have franchise players to anchor there top 2 lines for years.

Hopeless dream!!!
I would be very surprise if Phil Kessell drops outside top 5. Without trades, I think St-Louis will grab Erik Johnson. After, Pittsburgh will either pick Jordan Stall, Jonathan Toews or Phil Kessell. I think Chicago will go with Jonathan Toews. I firmly believe Washington will take [b]Niklas Backstrom if he's still on the board (maybe Derrick Brassard? I would be surprise, but not shock at all). The Bruins will grab Phil Kessell if available at 5.
You can talk about the lack of defensive or the attitude problem of Phil Kessell, but he's the BEST OFFENSIVE player in this draft. His skill and speed are unbelievable. I'm sure it's the ''wet dreams'' of all GM's, coaches and scouts out of the Top-5 to get Kessell!
