Remains to be seen. Feaster said when they lost him that he was hoping to keep all the players exposed, but I'm not sure I completely believe that. I know some people here don't think much of Keefe and I know Keefe doesn't think much of the TBL, but I'd love to see him back. IMO, he's an ideal call-up (versatile, experienced) and still has a lot of upside.
As I posted elsewhere recently, anyone who's followed the Bolts long enough to remember March '02 knows what Keefe is capable of. He set up a game-winner vs. the Kitties, had 3 points including the GWG against the Predlies, scored game-tying goals against Buffalo and Philly on back-to-back nights and started a Lightning comeback with a goal against Atlanta. That's a lot of clutch scoring in a short amount of time. All told, the kid had 9 of his 24 career points (5+4) in the space of four weeks and 14 games. Oddly enough, that's the last time we really saw him get a regular shift. Go figure.
