NHL Starting Goalie Gets Placed On Waivers
In a notable development within the hockey world, the Edmonton Oilers are taking proactive steps to address their ongoing goaltending challenges.
Goaltender Jack Campbell has been waived, with a clear intention to assign him to the AHL.
This strategic move aligns with the Oilers' determination to find solutions in the net. While Campbell's future with the team appears AHL-bound, the chances of him being claimed off waivers are relatively low.
As the Oilers gear up for their upcoming matchup against the San Jose Sharks, the opportunity seems to beckon Calvin Pickard to take the stage and make an impact in the net.
This decision carries significant weight for the Oilers as they strive to elevate their goaltending performance and enhance overall team success.
Stay tuned for further updates regarding this pivotal development.
