Is it Kessel or Kesler that everyone hates?

[Linngari]

Just curious, I know that the NHL players hate one of these two... which one? And why? And yes I am a NHL novice..

Kessel is the fatso guy who was roughing with his stick in preseason this year and Kesel is a Vancouver Canuck, a player of Canadian team which is disliked in general. I think it's Kessel who is hated because of some stories how he is drinking, acting arrogant, having disagreements with opponents and even teammates. But the guy has beaten cancer and returned to be one of the best players, definitely worth the money Toronto is paying him currently.

Definitely Kessel. Even Leafs fans hate him.

Actually there both pretty well disliked!!

ryan kesler is a sissy that flops and dives and embellishes to create phantom penalties. hockey players are tough and diving is a penalty and is severely looked down upon.

that's why everyone hates kessler. he ruins the game. tries to turn it into the NBA.

Both are generally hated around the league
