Explain how Campbell is a huge upgrade over Smith? He has been a career backup except for last season. Smith’s ability to play the puck made their D better. They might be able to absorb the loss of Keith but teams will be able to forecheck more agressively because they don’t have to worry about Smith playing the puck.
