Jack Campbell emerged this season as an All-Star goaltender, but he struggled for an extended period during the season and during the playoffs. Now according to Elliott Friedman there appears to be a large gap between what the Toronto Maple Leafs' have offered Jack Campbell and what he wants.
The Maple Leafs are expected to try and move on from the oft injured Petr Mrazek and his $3,800,000 cap hit. Moving on from Mrazek will also allow the Leafs more flexibility, to promote Erik Kallgren or Joseph Woll, which is great for Dubas, but this doesn't solve the starting goaltender issue.
If Dubas lets Campbell walk who is next in line? It sounds like they may be in on John Gibson. The question is, are the Ducks actively trying to move John Gibson, their top goalie? It doesn't sound like it, according to Pat Verbeek, but he is listening to offers it sounds like.
Gibson's current cap hit is $6.4 million until 2026-2027 and he has a modified no trade clause, that began this year. Gibson played 56 games with a .904 SV%, whereas Jack Campbell played 36 this year, with a .914 SV% in the regular season.
