I don’t think there’s anyway he comes up prior to the playoffs because they would have to waive at least a couple of others to make room
I could be wrong, but I believe the closer we get to the season end the less of a cap hit he'd have. Say we give him the last start of the season for instance.I don’t think there’s anyway he comes up prior to the playoffs because they would have to waive at least a couple of others to make room

Theres still a salary cap they have to follow.I think something like that is a safe bet.
I don't believe there's a roster size limit after the TDL (and judging by the fact NJ has 26(!) active skaters on the NHL roster atm and lots are at 24, I'm pretty confident in that).
Assuming the Oil aren't in a massive battle for home ice, I'd expect to see Campbell, Broberg, Holloway, and Lavoie all see the ice for the Oil during the final week.

They cant call all those players up.
You're also only allowed a limited number of recalls post deadline I believe.
Yup. We don’t have many/any guys we can send down that won’t have to clear waivers, rather not lose somebody going into the playoffs just to get a few Bake guys some shifts up here.Theres still a salary cap they have to follow.

Can't say I've watched him much except for highlites, and with someone at that skill level, the highlites are usually going to look pretty good. Yes, certainly disappointed with the season he's had. Had a rough one last year with injuries and such, but thought he'd take it to another level this season. Hopefully he can take any lessons he's learned this year and come back next year with much better results.The X-man with only 17 points on the season? This one really surprises me.
When I watched him during the Memorial Cup he looked like a natural goal scorer and he was a threat every time he stepped on the ice.
I guess the old hockey expression "doesn't translate well to the pro game" applies but still its a real surprise to me.
Yes he's still a very young player and there's time to rebound.Can't say I've watched him much except for highlites, and with someone at that skill level, the highlites are usually going to look pretty good.

At least the Condors are scoring. Campbell gets a 29 save shutout, Condors win 4-0.
Holloway's back from injury and gets the tip on this Wanner shot. Holloway would get an assist on the Kemp ENG as well.
Edmonton's next 7th round RHD gets his goal.
Pedersen with a shorthanded beaut.
Lots of guys who are too good for the AHL but still not good enough for the NHL.8GP 4G 4A 8P so far after Holloway got sent down.
Still think he should be a regular on the Oilers. From what I heard, he's just too good to be playing in the AHL. It's too bad they think giving him less than 10 mins TOI in the NHL on a 4th line is gonna have him successfully produce offensively.
Campbell is going to get the Brown treatment WHEN he is called up .. ie standing ovation after his first win and becoming a fan fav.

If goaltending was a strength in our organization, Campbell wouldn't be playing in the minors.Jack Campbell now rocking a .920 SV%, which puts him tied for 5th best in the AHL. Rodrigue has a .918, which puts him tied for 9th. With Skinner and Pickard playing really well, goaltending is a strength right now in the organization.
Great news. Hopefully that makes it easier to move him this summer.I can see it. If someone had said back at Christmas that Campbell would be rocking a .920 on the season by St. Patrick's Day they would have been laughed out of the room.
He was pushed into a hole after the Oil's s**t start and only dug himself deeper with his play during his first few weeks; but the dude deserves all the credit for managing to work his way out of it.
He does have NHL speed. But at the moment when in the NHL his passing, hockey iq and skill seems non existent.He has NHL speed at least. At worst, he is a bottom 6 player. Not ideal, for a player picked in the top half of the first round.
Maybe Stuaffer was right with his Marty Reasoner comparison haha
I was excited about the Holloway pick back in 2020. I believe he still has the potential to put it all together and become a useful player for us.
Our team defense was league worst before Knoby showed up. So in theory Campbell could be as good as Skinner and Pickard in NHL giving us 4 good goalies.If goaltending was a strength in our organization, Campbell wouldn't be playing in the minors.
IIRC he had better stats than Skinner did when he was sent down. Our team defense was ass and Holland tried to send a message by sending him down. Campbell then played poorly at first but has come on strong ever since. Hill was Vegas' #3 or #4 and took them to the cup. Maybe Campbell rises from the ashes and does the same for us? If he does, Hyman better write a book about it!Our team defense was league worst before Knoby showed up. So in theory Campbell could be as good as Skinner and Pickard in NHL giving us 4 good goalies.

Broberg and Holloway both have a similar issue where they excel in the AHL due to their speed and then struggle in the NHL cause it’s a much faster league.
Maybe more NHL time would help but both look worse the more they played.
I think they should stay in the AHL at least till their season is done
