Keith (suspension) served out his six-match ban and is available for Game 2 on Friday against the Blues.

Analysis:

Keith's presence on the blue line was sorely missed in Chicago's Game 1 loss. But without the defenseman at the end of the regular season, the Blackhawks went 3-0-3. In terms of fantasy value, the Winnipeg native is definitely a high-end option, especially when you factor in his contributions on the power play. During the regular season, he averaged 2:49 minutes per game with the man advantage, while logging four goals and 14 assists. With the 32-year-old set to return, look for Christian Ehrhoff or Viktor Svedberg to be the healthy scratch.
