How good will Keller be? Pretty damn good!
By himself, I could see him being a solid 60-65+ point producer with potential to hit 70+. Things are looking good in Arizona for once though. Domi, Dvorak, Strome (Not super high on him, but he should be at least a good top six), OEL, DeAngelo (Just needs to keep his mouth shut), Chychrun plus another potential top 5 pick this year. Playing with other highly skilled players, Keller could reach that lofty goal of ppg player. Not saying he will, but the skill is definitely there for that to be on the table.
Actually a bit salty...guy traded Keller away in my Dynasty league to another GM for scraps almost, now that guy won't even think of moving him...sigh
Keller has primarily played centre at BU and played the wing at the WJC. He's better down the middle but I project him to become a winger in the NHL.

Any chance Dvorak and strome can play wings?

Listed as C on NHL coyotes website. Our league determines position based on the NHL site. Hope he's converted to winger as he would covet more value. A player to watch for sure.
Hockey Pools? Too many to mention. Points only, salary cap and dynasty.
He'll be like Marner in that sense: always was gonna be a winger in the show, but doomed to be listed as a centre until partway through his rookie season.
Not a bad thing imo... He will end up being dual eligible for at least the first season or two in ESPN if his original designation is C but he plays wing.
Keller is great but I wouldn't own any coyote until they move. That team is going nowhere

Excerpts:
The Coyotes hope to sign prize prospect Clayton Keller as soon as his season at Boston University is over, Chayka told USA TODAY Sports.
“I think (Keller's) ready to take that next step for sure,” Chayka told USA TODAY Sports. “He’s been a dominant player at that level and the world junior championships. We think he’s a special player who can make an impact on a team.”
He’s expected to be able to contribute like fellow Americans Jack Eichel (Buffalo Sabres) and Auston Matthews (Toronto Maple Leafs).
