Coming into his Chicago Blackhawks' win-or-go-home Game 6 Wednesday night against the Anaheim Ducks, Keith was already averaging 45 percent of Chicago's overall possible ice time in the series. He played 49:51 in the double-overtime Game 2, 40:39 in the double-OT Game 4. He played 46:19 of an earlier playoff triple-OT game against Nashville.
In Game 6, Keith loafed around with just a little more than 28 minutes played. But what quality there was in what was, for him, a lower quantity night. Keith's three assists, not to mention a last-second save of a puck that was going in that would have tied it up in the third, were the main story in Chicago's 5-2 win.
