But of course that's not what the Oilers are getting here. I haven't watched a blackhawks game in quite awhile. Well since the bubble last year.
Is Keith really that bad now? What are Chicago fans saying about this? Just happy to clear up the cap space?

He was every bit as much their #1 guy as Gio was to the Flames.
With no Toews, Seabrook (17 M in cap space) Kirby Dach limited to 19 games and playing with a mid-level AHL goalie making 800k /yr in his league debut 2 years from playing in the ECHL the Hawks got 55 pts same as the Flames in a significantly tougher division.
I just can't see him having a bad year last year as an important player on a team that should have been clearly the worst team in the league...
