Agreed. I hated the Campbell signing, I thought it was like taking a home run swing when a pitcher is throwing you trash. I thought he was the worst bet of the 3 FA goalies that year and none of them were anything special, terrible year to take a big swing on a goalie but they needed to do something and options were thin. I would of rather see them do a couple cheap gambles and focus on the team getting better defensively but there was a lot of pressure to stop the goaltending revolving door.

I think if Skinner was playing on Boston a lot of guys in here would be cursing management for not having a goalie like Skinner.
Terrible year to have money and urgent need for a Cup carrying goaltender. I wanted Ullmark the year before but timing was off and not sure he would play out West anyway. They needed to sign a veteran and entering window phase it wasn't going to be a gamble. Poorly read Campbell and it has been a grossly costly mistake.
