Jack Campbell News

Campbell will be away from the Red Wings for an indefinite period of time after it was announced Friday that he has entered the NHL/NHLPA Player Assistance Program. The 32-year-old goaltender signed a one-year, $775,000 contract with Detroit in the offseason after being bought out after two eventful seasons in Edmonton.

Campbell was recently bought out of a five-year, $25 million contract by Edmonton and has signed a one-year, contract worth $775,000 on Monday with Detroit. The 32-year-old spent the majority of 2023-24 with Bakersfield (AHL) after struggling out of the gate with Edmonton with his 1-4-0 record, 4.50 GAA and .873 SV%.

The ugly chapter which is Jack Campbell in Edmonton seems to have come to an end on Sunday as the Oilers placed the goaltender on unconditional waivers for the purposes of a buyout. Campbell had three year's remaining on a five-year, $25 million contract adn will save the Oilers $3.9 million in cap space next season. The 32-year-old was sent to the minors last year after just five games due to his 1-4-0 record, 4.50 GAA and .873 SV%.

Campbell has cleared waivers and been assigned to the Bakersfield Condors of the AHL. After 41 unimpressive games with the Oilers over the past two seasons, Campbell has posted a lacklustre 3.53 GAA and .886 SV%, leading to his placement on waivers on Tuesday. The Oilers, who were largely considered to be Stanley Cup contenders to start the season, are off to a dreadful start, winning only two of their first 11 games (2-8-1). The Oilers will likely recall Calvin Pickard from Bakersfield (AHL) once Campbell clears waivers and will turn to Stuart Skinner for starting duties in the interim.

Campbell will start for the third time in four games as the Oilers look for just their second win of the season on Tuesday against the Minnesota Wild. After a terrible opening night performance that saw him allow four goals on 16 shots, Campbell has garnered a 2.50 GAA and .934 SV% in his two games since (1-1-0). The Oilers were last year's top offensive team (3.96 GF/GP) but after five games this season are averaging only 2.60 goals per game while being outscored 20-13 (1-3-1). Campbell and the Oilers will hope they can do a better job defensively as they will be without captain Connor McDavid.

After a forgettable season-opening performance that saw him allow four goals on 16 shots, Campbell led the Oilers to their first victory on Wednesday, saving 42 of 43 shots against the Nashville Predators and will be rewarded with another start on Thursday against the Philadelphia Flyers. Until he can consistently string together quality performance, Campbell remains difficult to rely on from a fantasy-hockey perspective, even against the low-scoring Flyers (2.67 GF/GP). The Oilers, -199 road favourites, will look to improve to a .500 record with a victory tonight.

Campbell will start for the Oilers on Tuesday night and will hope to bounce back from a miserable opening-game performance. Campbell allowed four goals on 16 shots before being relieved by Stuart Skinner en route to an 8-1 loss to the Vancouver Canucks. The Oilers, who have been outscored 12-4 in their first two contests, are -135 road favourites tonight against the Nashville Predators as they search for their first victory of the season (0-2-0). The starting goalie position is still very much up for grabs in Edmonton and a strong performance for Campbell against the Predators could go a long way in securing some more starts down the line.

In three preseason games (3-0-0), Jack Campbel was lights-out with a 0.99 GAA and .971 SV% as he outperformed Stuart Skinner and seems to have secured the starting role in the Oilers' season-opener. The Oilers are listed as -154 road favourites against a Canucks team that ranked 13th offensively last season, averaging 3.29 goals per game. As was the case last season, and in the playoffs, the leash will likely be short for Campbell in the Oilers' crease if he is unable to string together consistent performances.

Campbell allowed four goals on 32 shots (.875 SV%) as he snapped a four-game losing streak with a win over San Jose in his last start. The 31-year-old has struggled greatly in his first season in Edmonton, with his 3.57 GAA and .882 SV% but surprisingly decent 18-9-4 record. He takes on the Arizona Coyotes, who have lost four-straight games and are last in the NHL in shots per game (25.6).
