Three-Time Stanley Cup Winner Phil Kessel Joins WPT Global

Kessel, a three-time Stanley Cup winner, joins Phil Ivey, Brad Owen, Ethan Yau, Jon Van Fleet, Angel Guillen, Patrick Tardif, Xuan Liu, and Pete Chen in sporting the famous WPT Global patch.
Kessel racked up almost 1,300 NHL regular season games for the Boston Bruins, Toronto Maple Leafs, Pittsburgh Penguins, Arizona Coyotes, and the Vegas Golden Knights, scoring 413 goals, providing 579 assists, and amassing 992 points.
