3 years agoEdmonton Oilers defenseman Duncan Keith left the game on Tuesday night with an upper-body injury. The second half of the game saw just how much Edmonton was missing two of their best left side defensemen. Darnell Nurse was already out with a broken finger. The Keith injury forced Kris Russell into a much bigger role. Even young rookie Philip Broberg played nearly 19 minutes on Tuesday. If Keith has to miss any substantial amount of time, Edmonton will have their defensive depth severely tested. That could be advantageous to their opposition. --Chris Wassel - RotoBaller
