keep in mind the Oilers SUCKED!! at that time and they were also looking at replacing Skinner.

They replaced their coach and changed their game approach. He played well for the Leaf's before leaving with a strong D in front of him much like Elvis is facing

Campbell has been the worst of the three Bakersfield goalies as well. He's been awful for two straight regular seasons. Maybe he gets his game together next season, but he is a complete liability on the ice and for the front office.

The guy is a head case full stop.
If they want to lose the contract then they will need to add a valuable asset like a first rounder.
Campbell is 32 years old and has never been able to establish himself as a number 1 goalie.
Why would anyone think he will now

- Rang


Why now? Did you read the article? USA Hockey people know him. He just needs a chance.

I'll bite....

From Edmonton: Campbell, Bromberg, 4th rd 2024, lottery protected 1st 2025. 25% retained at least.

From Buffalo: Comrie and a depth player

If NJ is spending any capital on a goalie, it's for the surest of things. So Markstrom or Gibson. And you can debate how sure those two are. Still better than their present starters.

If I'm Kenny, I'm not retaining on Campbell. IF teams are desperate enough to talk themselves into even considering this tire fire, they're already half way to talking themselves into the idea that Campbell is a deal at 5 million.

Solid negotiation tactics right there, I completely agree. If someone put on their good shoes and drove all the way to the office, they're looking to be closed.
