Johnston Reveals Kessel Is Close to Signing A Contract
Rumours about Phil Kessel's return to the NHL this season have been circulating for weeks.

According to TSN's Chris Johnston, his return could happen at any moment, and he has already been close to getting a deal done in the last few weeks.
He's been skating on his own. He didn't want to go to any training camps on a try-out but it sounds as though he's had a couple close calls with contracts in the past week or two and there is an expectation that he will join a team.
He just wants to be a member of a team and continue living the dream.
