RakuRaku Posted April 10, 2022 Share Posted April 10, 2022 Anyone knows if he's a real keeper with the big club or far behind Burroughs and Hunt? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Skilled and tough offensive dman with size. Late bloomer who I feel will make a really good pro. It may not be easy to get him to sign after this season as he may want to finish school before going pro. I think Brady Keeper 25, 6'2, RD very gritty could be a surprise at training camp..This was a article back in 2018..Keeper was having a great camp this past Sept until he broke his leg.. I sure hope he comes back with fire and plays very aggressive.We need more tough D man... Go Keeper Go 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Going by definition only Petan and Podkolzin were papered down - they stayed physically in Vancouver and it was simply a paper transaction to ensure they were on the AHL roster at the TDL so they could be playoff eligible. Those transactions used up 2 of the 4 regular recalls available past the TDL. Dries was already on the AHL roster at the TDL and played games in the AHL past that date. He was brought up later for a few games as well as Lockwood - initially on emergency basis but then converted into regular recalls (using the final 2 available).

Or if we deal Schenn at TDL Keeper get the call up to show what he can do at the NHL level. Played in the NHL already, albeit minimally 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How it turns out is mostly up to him. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Though he may be a long shot, I wouldn't count Keeper out. He's got the heart of a lion. There's always room on an NHL roster for a player/person like Brady Keeper. 2 1 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Really hard to tell how much he can regain after so much time off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Herberts Vasiljevs Posted July 28, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted July 28, 2022 (edited) Despite breaking his leg, one of the lucky things about Keeper's situation is that he hasn't missed any 'development' time (sort of). He played out his collegiate career, and played nearly a full season of AHL hockey prior to COVID in 2020. I feel like he's one of the forgotten ones around here. Although our defence is far from perfect, a guy like him could be crucial if/when injuries arise. I still think there's player here. Hopefully he can get back up to speed sooner than later.
