Its not as important as its cracked up to be really. What it did do was help unite Scotland's nobles behind Bruce (jumping on the winning bandwagon) and it got him is wife back from the resulting prisoner exchange.

But it failed to end the war as 1. Edward escaped (so The Bruce couldn't exchange him for recognition of his crown), and the war went on for another 14years until 1328. Because it went on so long Bruce was unable to truly stabilise his throne making future conflict inevitable in his sons reign.
