Campbell is the #1 in EDM and Skinner will back him up if mid season things didnt work out maybe then they will look at Allen and why Varlamov over Jake is that a serious question?
Yeah, you're echoing what I said about Campbell and Skinner but you're once again overlooking how Allen would be an upgrade. The issue here is they will not pay the price for the improvement. Not because Allen sucks.
Allen and Varlamov are close in potential. Yes, that is a serious statement. And Allen has an attractive cap hit where Vegas can look for forward improvements for this season as well.
Not that dumb because Allen would be dirt cheap against the cap if we retained.
Even if they signed Campbell for 8M, he ain't getting the job done himself. Oilers should learn from his time with leafs and get him a good 1B goalie to take some pressure off and help out.
Apparently, Campbell is capable of playing 60-65 games and Skinner is proven. They have fixed all their goalie issues permanently now. No chance it don't disappoint.

Of course Allen would help out many teams in the 1B situation. Thinking otherwise is just wrong. Problem is cost to acquire... Habs are not trading Allen for cheap and no, he don't suck. If a fan wants to look at his stats playing on a bad team, go right ahead.
