Looking at the goalies in Edmonton the last two years vs Campbell, and comparing them to Markstrom as well.
Campbell isn't a huge improvement on Smith, but he is on Koskinen.
As much as we liked to make fun of Mike Smith, he's been just as good as Markstrom the last two seasons if you look at the big picture.
I'd say Campbell is slightly worse than Smith and Markstrom but might not be as far off as you'd think. Markstrom has an advantage in he's a true number 1 by GP, where the other two are more tandem goalies.
Looking at the last two seasons:
Save Percentage:
Smith: .919
Campbell: .916
Markstrom: .915
Koskinen: .901
Goals Saved Above Average:
Markstrom: 21.99
Smith: 21.22
Campbell: 17.79
Koskinen: -12.71
