RUMOUR: Jack Campbell's Contract to Force Oilers to Trade Leon Draisaitl?

The Oilers' main issue this season centers around goaltending, particularly Jack Campbell's subpar performance. His struggles led to a demotion to the AHL, where, despite a recent shutout, his overall stats continue to disappoint. Amidst these difficulties, speculation about trades involving key players like Leon Draisaitl has emerged. Hockey YouTuber Gio Palermo, aka LegoRocks99, highlighted this in a video, citing a reporter's comment:

The Oilers had hoped for Campbell to rediscover his form in the AHL, but even his recent shutout does little to alleviate concerns about his performance. His record in the AHL stands at 1-4, with a 3.22 goals-against average and a .884 save percentage. These numbers have led to skepticism about his potential return to the NHL. Despite this, there's talk of the Oilers considering recalling him, a decision that has been met with doubt among fans.

Campbell's NHL statistics are similarly lackluster, mirroring his AHL performance. He has a 1-4 record in the NHL with a .873 save percentage and a high 4.50 goals-against average. Facing these challenges, the Oilers are at a crossroads, with Campbell's situation adding to their season's difficulties.
