| Date | News | Advice |
|---|---|---|
| Dec. 1, 2024 | Kessel produced an assist in Saturday's 3-2 overtime loss to the Flyers. - Kessel put up three helpers over 13 appearances in November. The defenseman has been in the lineup regularly, but he's seen limited minutes on the third pairing. He's up to three helpers, 12 shots on net, 15 hits, 14 blocked shots and a minus-3 rating over 21 contests, averaging just 12:26 of ice time. Without a larger role, Kessel is not an option for most fantasy formats. | None |
| Nov. 6, 2024 | Kessel logged an assist and two blocked shots in Tuesday's 3-2 win over the Lightning. - The helper was Kessel's first point in 10 outings this season. The 24-year-old defenseman has added eight blocked shots, six shots on goal, five hits, four PIM and a minus-3 rating. Kessel should have a little more job security in the short term, as Philip Broberg (lower body) is out 4-6 weeks, joining Nick Leddy (lower body) as injured St. Louis blueliners. | None |
| Nov. 1, 2024 | Kessel has not recorded a point through his first eight contests in 2024-25. - Kessel has been in the lineup more often than not while competing for playing time with Pierre-Olivier Joseph and Scott Perunovich. The 24-year-old Kessel has five shots on net, five hits, five blocked shots, four PIM and a minus-2 rating this season. Kessel will have a tougher time staying in the lineup once Nick Leddy (lower body) is ready to return. | None |
| April 18, 2024 | Kessel was reassigned to AHL Springfield on Thursday. - Kessel recorded a goal and seven points in 39 games with St. Louis this season. The Blues' campaign is over, but he can get in some extra contests with Springfield. Kessel has also collected two goals and seven points in 34 appearances with the minor-league club. | None |
| April 7, 2024 | Kessel scored a goal and added two PIM in Sunday's 6-5 shootout win over the Ducks. - The goal snapped a six-game point drought for the 23-year-old defenseman, and it was his first NHL tally. Kessel impressed the Blues enough to earn a two-year contract extension in March, but he's still got room to grow. He's at five points, 23 shots on net, 61 blocked shots, 36 hits, 12 PIM and a minus-3 rating over 35 appearances this season. | None |
| March 13, 2024 | Kessel signed a two-year, $1.6 million contract extension with the Blues on Wednesday. - Kessel has three assists, eight PIM, 19 hits and 44 blocks in 23 contests this season. He also has two goals and seven points in 34 outings with AHL Springfield. The 23-year-old's extension is a one-way deal, which suggests he's in line to spend the full 2024-25 campaign with the big club. | None |
| March 10, 2024 | Kessel was promoted from AHL Springfield on Sunday. - Kessel has logged just two assists in 22 NHL games this season. His last appearance at the top level was Feb. 24 against Detroit. | None |
| Feb. 26, 2024 | Kessel was reassigned to AHL Springfield on Monday. - Kessel lost his roster spot after Justin Faulk (lower body) was activated off long-term injured reserve. The 23-year-old Kessel has managed just two points in 22 NHL games this season while averaging 17:25 of ice time. The blueliner hasn't been significantly more productive in the minors, having notched two goals and four assists in 29 outings with the Thunderbirds. | None |
| Jan. 19, 2024 | Kessel recorded two blocked shots across 13:00 of ice time in Thursday's 5-2 loss to the Blues. - Kessel has now played 10 NHL games but has yet to post a point. Through eight games this season, he has averaged 16:26 of ice time, firing six shots on net and blocking 18 shots. The 23-year-old blueliner produced 42 points through 115 games in the AHL, so his ceiling is certainly limited at this level. | None |
| Dec. 30, 2023 | Kessel was recalled from AHL Springfield on Saturday. - Kessel was recalled as Justin Faulk (lower body) will not be available to play in Pittsburgh on Saturday. The 23-year-old blueliner played in two games last season with the Blues, firing three shots on net and blocking one shot. Kessel has two goals and six points in 29 AHL games this season. He will likely be the seventh defenseman on the Blues' depth chart at this time. | None |
| April 6, 2023 | Kessel was reassigned to AHL Springfield on Thursday. - Kessel's demotion could be an indication that Robert Bortuzzo (upper body) will be ready to play against the Rangers on Thursday. For his part, the 22-year-old Kessel logged two games for the Blues this year in which he recorded three shots and one block while averaging 15:10 of ice time. Barring some additional injury concerns among the Blues' defensemen, this may mark the end of Kessel's NHL action this year. | None |
