Confirmed Signing with Link: [EDM] G Jack Campbell signs with the Oilers (5 years, $5M AAV)

Soup will be fine. He's a very solid goalie, but he can be streaky and a bit injury prone. The highs will be very high. The lows will be quite low. Great news is he's shown up quite well in the playoffs.

If Skinner can be a capable backup, the Oilers will have nothing to worry about.

The Oilers have plenty to worry about ...Carolina is dusting Campbell...again.....

The LAK with Doughty and Arvidsson would have also swept the Oilers last year. The Leafs also swept the Oilers last year.

Regular season and playoffs are two different animals.

You should know this.

 

[Master P]

Who would have thought signing a back up to this kind of deal would turn out to be a bad decision?

How long before the dynamic duo ask for a trade? Have to think if they miss the playoffs this year they will.

How long before you donkeys realize they are staying in Edmonton long term? Have to think if they make the playoffs (again) this year you will

I don't think so. Same with Matthews in TO. At some point in time the white flag comes up. I doubt the oilers make the playoffs this year

Yikes

I want to see the shitstorm if the Oilers fail to make the playoffs again, unreal.

I doubt they miss it this year, if they can get average goaltending they will be in.

They’ll both be worth 100M and are two of the best regular season players in the NHL and you think they’ll stay in EDMONTON ALBERTA their entire careers? Lmaoo

That's exactly the point I made.

The Oilers posters bragging about how a healthy regular season LA Kings team would beat the Leafs in the playoffs because they won against an injured Leafs team this regular season.

I said by that same accord, the Leafs beat the Oilers in the playoffs.

You're agreeing with me and disagreeing with the Oilers poster.

Can the Oilers terminate him for breach of contract

 

[BrannigansLaw]

Dubas is dumb af but he made the very easy and correct choice to let Campbell walk.

He can play lights out every now and then but when his confidence starts to wobble it is a horrific sight.

 

[CherryToke]

7ack Campbell

 

[Ziggy Stardust]

Absolutely nobody saw this disaster coming. It seems like Holland just had to find another goaltender to hand out a disastrous contract to.

You must be so wise to understand them both so well, which insider are you again?

"But Hyman worked out so well.........."

The Oilers are a train wreck defensively. Even the rookie Skinner figured that out rather quickly.

He only stuck it to Campbell because the big four stuck it to him. See Hyman.

 

[Amadeus]

And that's why we didn't sign him for the money he got.

 

[Old Boys Club]

Holland strikes again

A hot and cold goalie who can have prolonged rough patches in a season is what Leaf fans told Oiler fans they were getting, but Oiler fans were in denial. No longer...and a 5x5 to boot!

Really? Do you think Seattle will stay ahead of them ALL season?

Yup, the Leafs defense is also a lot better than Edmonton's and did their best to insulate him as much as possible

This Oilers defense is straight trash, they don't do him any favours. It's a bad combination

Everyone but Oiler fans knew this would happen based on his play previously
