A fresh start and low risk acquisition is not going to cost the Flames a top prospect I wouldn’t think.
While I agree that Keith was hugely overvalued, there seemed to be some thought that his pedigree ocould play huge if the Oilers made the playoffs.

While I think his time has passed, Keith was a different beast come playoff time.

I'm not sure it's a fair comparison.
