Ken Holland Reportedly Wants to Bring Campbell Back As His Plan to Fix the Oilers
All eyes are on Ken Holland for how he plans on turning around the Oilers' season in what is likely his last as the Oilers' GM. Many are speculating what Holland will do for a trade, or what he plans on doing to potentially sign a free agent. However, Elliotte Friedman revealed that his plan is to bring back Jack Campbell.
Elliotte Friedman on Saturday Headlines says the Oilers granted Jack Campbell permission to bring in Manny Legace with him for a few days in the AHL. Legace was a former goaltender coach for CBJ. Campbell worked with Legace in the summer.
Friedman adds: "I still do believe that its [the Oiler's] first choice to have Campbell rejoin the team and improve his play."
