So last night I was drafting my fantasy team (ugh, it's a cap league) and the kid was telling my to draft only [Maple Leafs](http://www.sbnation.com/nhl/teams/toronto-maple-leafs?ref=pensionplanpuppets.com). Which, uh, well sorry guy. It's a keeper league in its second year, so the really good players were taken (I drafted 3rd overall goddammit). So he's telling be I need to draft [Phil Kessel](http://www.sbnation.com/nhl/players/54905/phil-kessel?ref=pensionplanpuppets.com), because he's the best, and we really need him on our team. [Yes it's the kid from this story](https://www.pensionplanpuppets.com/thursdays-ftb-storytime-maple-leafs-news-links-rumours-stories/).

Sadly, I told him Kessel was already taken. Sadly, he told me he's now a two team kid. Pittsburgh and Toronto. As much as I hate the [Penguins](http://www.sbnation.com/nhl/teams/pittsburgh-penguins?ref=pensionplanpuppets.com), At least it isn't Ottawa. So I asked him who he'd cheer for if they played each other.

"The Penguins, duh"

Sigh. Here are your links.
