Keith (upper body) could be an option against the Flyers on Tuesday, Jason Gregor of OilersNation.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
Keith last was in action Feb. 9 versus the Blackhawks due to his upper-body injury that cost him the last nine contests. While the veteran defenseman has managed just one goal in 35 games this year, he has chipped in 13 helpers and could offer decent mid-range fantasy value once given the all-clear.

Keith (upper body) was placed on injured reserve Thursday.
EDGE Analysis
Keith is in the concussion protocol and dealing with additional upper-body soreness after a hard impact with the boards Wednesday. He's already expected to miss at least two weeks, so his placement on IR won't change his recovery timeline. Markus Niemelainen and Philip Broberg will compete for a third-pairing spot while Keith is out.

Keith (upper body) was injured in the first period of Wednesday's game versus the Blackhawks, Daniel Nugent-Bowman of The Athletic reports.
EDGE Analysis
Keith crashed hard into the boards in the first period, and he needed help getting off the ice. The defenseman appeared to hit his head or shoulder during the incident. That likely leaves the 38-year-old as questionable at best for Friday's game versus the Islanders. The Oilers should update his status prior to that contest.

Keith dished out two assists and blocked three shots in Wednesday's 5-3 win over Washington.
EDGE Analysis
Keith has contributed on both ends of the ice lately. He's blocked at least three shots in five of the past six games while chipping in five assists over that stretch. The 38-year-old blueliner will have an opportunity to rest his bones during the All-Star break, as Edmonton won't play again until next Tuesday against Vegas.

Keith managed an assist and blocked two shots in Saturday's 6-4 loss to the Senators.
EDGE Analysis
Keith set up Brendan Perlini for a goal at 17:34 of the second period. In his last five games, Keith has chipped in with four assists. The 38-year-old probably won't keep turning back the clock much longer, as he's at just nine points with 40 blocked shots, 38 shots on net and a plus-2 rating in 26 contests overall. His fantasy value will likely be limited to deeper formats that count defensive metrics.

Keith recorded an assist and two blocked shots in Saturday's 3-2 overtime loss to the Islanders.
EDGE Analysis
Keith set up Leon Draisaitl for a game-tying goal early in the second period. With three assists in as many games since the holiday break, Keith has been a little more productive on offense recently. The 38-year-old probably won't be able to sustain it -- he has just eight points with 35 shots on net, 37 blocked shots and an even plus-minus rating through 23 appearances this year while playing in more of a shutdown role.
