Duncan Keith has made the decision to retire from the NHL after a 17-year career with the Chicago Blackhawks and Edmonton Oilers. Keith is almost a surefire hall-of-famer after a long list of career accolades including being a 4-time all-star, 3-time Stanley Cup Champion, 2-time Gold Medalist, 2-time Norris Trophy winner and one-time Conn Smythe Award winner.
