Does Campbell have any? Shanahan had none. I am guessing that any position for which Shanahan was qualified, Niewy and Al would be more qualified for (unless it was some kind of league liaison role).

Yes, I agree on both Nieuwendyk, but his GM tenure with the Stars was not particularily succesful. MacInnis experience is questionable based on his role with the Blues under JD, kind of hard to pin point just how great that exprience was. I also think people are far too excited by JD, and therefore are given MacInnis tones of credibility due to his tenure with the Blues.
Campbell's experience is all at the NHL level as VP of hockey ops, but I'd suggest that's more relevant than the two former Flames. For me the only exciting name in the group is Burke tbh, but who knows what kind of appeal that would hold.
