campbell is on his 4th team and hasn't figured it out can you blame the oilers goalie coaching for that?id blame the GM and staff that signed off on giving cambell for that term over the coaching staff
skinner was bouncing back and forth from echl<->ahl and then oilers call him up hes 25 with 71 gp in the nhl hes still got potential but hes not looking like "the guy" but again is that the coaching staffs fault?as a 3rd rounder maybe they pulled the best out of him
they both have consistency issues from what ive seen and they are stuck with campbell they should have just traded for a goalie because now they either buy him out or overpay to dump him and trade for a good goalie which is what they should have done originally

Well I'm not saying they are elite tenders to begin with, but oilers goalie become worse overtime. Oilers always had shitty defense, but that never stopped markstrom or Demko play above their heads to keep the Canucks competitive, when they basically had Hughes and myers with revolving door of fringe nhl dmen.
Kosh, dubnyk, Talbot, skinner etc. All played well at first but gradually got worse.
Campbell is good on teams with defense, he was solid with kings and leafs, but obviously never adjusted to the oilers system. He's a goalie that benefits from the system rather than being a difference maker. Even dubas knew this, Holland gambled and lost
Great points on both sides. More than one issue no doubt.
We have Ian Clark. No problems for us there
