Peter Chiarelli will hold an 11 a.m. news conference on Saturday to discuss the Phil Kessel trade. In the mean time, let the puck pundits weigh in:

*****Greg Wyshynski of YahooSports! says Kessel is now Toronto's potential locker-room problem.


*****Scott Cullen of TSN says the Bruins got good value for Kessel and wonders how he will fare without Marc Savard's slick feeds.


*****James Mirtle says that Boston made out well and points out that Kessel is "coming off a serious injury, is smallish and not a wonderful defensive player. His attitude, too, could at times use some improvement.''


*****Matt Kalman believes the Bruins have enough offense on the roster to replace Kessel and have "two first-round and three second-round picks in next June's draft. They also have two first-round picks for 2011. That's a real position of strength for Chiarelli if and when he determines he needs to bolster his crew.''
