Keith counts as an NHLer for sure, as long as you don't specify present tense.

I would’ve picked the ####tier team too. Much better chance of playing in the NHL… he won’t get a sniff in Calgary.

0.1% chance of making it

I hope he makes it though, that means the Oilers is crap still

Probably ends up like his brother. Solid AHL piece and only makes the show if they have no organizational depth which has been the case for 15 years.

Lastly, Holland confirmed he would qualify all of Edmonton’s remaining RFAs, save for one: Noah Philp, who Holland revealed has decided to retire after what was a tough year for him personally. Philp, 24, had his first full pro season last year, registering 37 points in 70 games with the AHL’s Bakersfield Condors. The University of Alberta product expressed a desire to stay closer to home in Calgary and be with his family.

It says he had a tough year personally and he wants to be closer to home, but his point totals weren't terrible for a 1st year pro (3rd on the Condors). I would see if he would consider playing on the Wranglers next season if he wants to be closer to home and still make money playing hockey.
