Kesler is not in the same league as Parise, in my view. Consistency is the key element that differentiates between stars and above-average NHLers. First let Kesler put up 3-4 consecutive 80pt seasons. Then, and only then, would he be of similar value to Zach Parise.
Exactly. Kesler has never hit 30 goals, Parise has done it 4 years in a row while playing comparable defensively.
