. The Columbus Blue Jackets emerge as a suitable destination for several reasons.
Connection to Former Blue Jackets Employee
Earlier this month, it was revealed that Campbell sought permission from the Oilers to bring in additional goaltending help in the form of Manny Legace, who had previously served as the goalie coach for the Blue Jackets. Legace, having worked closely with Campbell, could provide valuable insights that might make the Blue Jackets more open to a trade.
Scouting at Blue Jackets Game
Signs of potential trade discussions emerged as three key members of the Oilers organization were spotted scouting the recent Blue Jackets game against the Montreal Canadiens. Assistant general manager Brad Holland, goalie scout Jeff Salajko, and Warren Rachel were present. Campbell's impressive .944 save percentage over his last three games enhances his trade value, adding intrigue to the possibility of a deal in the coming week.
