  Campbell (not injury related) was placed on waivers Sunday, Elliotte Friedman of Sportsnet reports. Campbell signed a one-year deal with Detroit before entering the NHL/NHLPA player assistance program. If he clears waivers, Campbell will likely report to AHL Grand Rapids as a depth option for the Red Wings. The 32-year-old netminder made five appearances with Edmonton last season, going 1-4-0 with an .873 save percentage.

• Red Wings' Jack Campbell: Enters player assistance program

  10/04/2024 • By RotoWire

  Campbell will be away from the Red Wings indefinitely after entering the NHL/NHLPA player assistance program, Chris Johnston of The Athletic reports Friday. Campbell signed a one-year, $775,000 contract with the Red Wings over the summer. He joined a crowded Detroit goalie situation that also includes Ville Husso, Cam Talbot and Alex Lyon. Campbell had a 2.63 GAA and a .918 save percentage in 33 regular-season contests with AHL Bakersfield in 2023-24 after struggling with Edmonton during the early portion of the campaign, posting a 4.50 GAA and an .873 save percentage across five appearances from Oct. 11-Nov. 4. When Campbell is ready to play, he will likely spend time with AHL Grand Rapids.

• Red Wings' Jack Campbell: Trying to rebound on one-year deal

  07/01/2024 • By RotoWire

  Campbell signed a one-year, $775,000 contract with the Red Wings on Monday. Campbell is an interesting case. He struggled mightily early in the 2023-24 season, posting a 4.49 GAA and an .873 save percentage across five regular-season starts with Edmonton. The Oilers sent him to AHL Bakersfield, and although Campbell did well at that level with a 2.63 GAA and a .918 save percentage in 33 regular-season appearances, he never got another shot with Edmonton. Instead, the Oilers bought out the final three campaigns of his five-year, $25 million deal, which is how he became an unrestricted free agent eligible to sign with Detroit. Campbell will enter training camp looking to revive his career, but he'll face stiff competition for a roster spot with Ville Husso, Cam Talbot and Alex Lyon also under contract. At least one of Detroit's goalies is likely to be traded or waived prior to Opening Night, with Campbell's path to making the roster the longest of the four.
