lol, I definitely didn't come into this season expecting perfection from Keith. I also didn't say he was horrible, just that I disagree that he's done reasonably well. I don't think that he gives them good 2nd pair minutes and I don't think he's really contributed much overall to the team being 15-5 despite him playing 2 whole minutes a night on the PK . Given the cap that he eats up, that's not nearly good enough.

Yeah, I think he's been objectively mediocre at best. He's -1 on a team that's famously gone 13-5 with him in the lineup. That's despite him getting a ton of time with McDavid - Tippett's clearly believed that the second pairing needs some help so he has not deployed the 5-man unit much this year.
Keith's regularly lost his man and been caught chasing, including for a lot of goals against.
For what it's worth, I think Ceci's not playing up to his contract either. To me, he's ideally a decent 3rd pairing defenceman, but he's elevated here because the coaching staff doesn't trust the highest paid RHD to play more than 3rd pairing minutes if not with Darnell Nurse.
I don't think either of those players have been a train wreck, but I also don't think they've been very good and I think the 5v5 struggles are at least in part because we haven't had a great showing from the defence to this point. Having everyone injured doesn't help but it's not that far a drop off when the guys you're replacing are ones like Keith and Koekkoek. I would really like Nurse back soon though...
