Kaberle-Kessel deal falls through: There was a buzz in the Montreal air Friday night as the first round of the 2009 NHL draft commenced. While one major trade went down -- Chris Pronger moving from Anaheim to Philadelphia -- and the Islanders made John Tavares the first overall pick, the remaining drama involved the trade that didn't happen. Earlier Friday the Maple Leafs and Bruins appeared to have a trade in place that would send Toronto defenseman Tomas Kaberle and the No. 7 pick in the draft to Boston for forward Phil Kessel. However, the trade was nixed because Toronto never included their first-round pick in the deal as Boston believed and thought they were getting a draft selection from the Bruins.

Injury Report

Shoulder - Questionable for start of 2009-10 regular season
(Updated - 6/18/09)

Fantasy Analysis

The Maple Leafs have been long rumored to be shopping Kaberle and defenseman Pavel Kubina, so it wasn't surprising to see a deal almost go down Friday. Kaberle probably would have liked to move to a contender like Boston, but the Bruins were just asking for too much. Especially since Kessel might not be ready for the start of the season due to shoulder surgery and is a restricted free agent, so there is a chance Toronto might have lost him in the end. Both players could still be in play this offseason, so stay tuned. Whether they stay or go, Kaberle and Kessel have high-end Fantasy potential.

RW Phil Kessel underwent left rotator cuff and labrum surgery that was called successful. He is not expected to be ready until November, regardless of who signs him as a restricted free agent. 52/8/2009
