EDMONTON, AB - Goaltender Jack Campbell hasn't even been a resident of Edmonton for a week, but the city already feels like home.
The 30-year-old is coming into his first season of manning the crease for the Oilers after penning a five-year, $25-million-dollar contract on the first day of Free Agency and making the decision to swap the hockey hotbed of Toronto for another in Oil Country.
"It's been great," he said, speaking from the Oilers Hall of Fame Room for the first time on Friday. "It's definitely huge to get comfortable and figure my way around this building. It's a beautiful arena, we're spoiled, and just getting to know everybody, getting to know the guys and getting on the ice and working together, it's just been a great couple of days and I can't wait to keep building."
There's already a lot of familiar faces for Campbell to consult on exchanging the Blue & White for the Orange & Blue, and because of those connections, the newest Oilers netminder is feeling quite acclimatized already to his new city and Rogers Place almost two weeks in advance of Training Camp.
"It always helps to know teammates and there's quite a few guys I've played with throughout the years," he said.
