By the model, Keller is a top-tier winger: a 92.8 overall, 16th of 384 at his position. That makes him the highest-rated player on the Utah Mammoth roster.

The standout tool is offensive creation (94), backed by play driving (88); power-play production (47) is the part of his game that grades lowest.

Over 9 rated seasons since 2017-18 he has averaged 88.4, peaking at 98.4 in 2025-26; last season's 98.4 was right in line with the year before.

At $7.15M through 2027-28 before unrestricted free agency, the model rates the deal Underpaid: his expected value is $16.2M, so the Utah Mammoth save roughly $9.08M a season against his production.

His cap hit is the 4th-largest on the Utah Mammoth NHL roster and uses 6.9% of the $104M ceiling; the club currently has $3.95M in cap space.

How we rate players: each skater's overall is a percentile (0-100) built from offense, defense, play driving, finishing, power-play and penalty-kill impact against players at the same position; goalies are rated on goals saved above expected. Contract value compares the cap hit with the salary the model expects for that level of production, age and position. Figures are updated as new games and signings arrive.
