Confused Phil Kessel Admits His Breath Stinks

Penguins winger Phil Kessel had a goal and assist in Wednesday’s win over the Lightning, but when he wasn’t on the ice, the broadcast showed him winded and hunched over on the bench. Pierre McGuire interviewed Kessel after the game and asked, “How’s your breath?” Kessel didn’t realize the question was about his conditioning.

McGuire asks at the 1:05 mark. “It’s not good, eh?” Kessel says.

Phil’s breath still wouldn’t be one of the 10 stinkiest things in a hockey locker room.
