During his time with the Blackhawks, Campbell showcased his prowess as an offensive defenseman, amassing an impressive 134 points in four seasons.
When the 2016-17 season concluded, the organization informed Campbell that they were heading in a different direction on the ice, prompting him to contemplate retirement. However, the team extended an offer for him to join the front office as a "special advisor in business and hockey relations," which he gladly accepted.
Campbell was apart of the Blackhawks decision making in the Patrick Kane deal.
Initially involved in various roles such as broadcasting and scouting, Campbell ultimately found his niche in developing defensive prospects.
When Kyle Davidson assumed the position of interim general manager in October 2021, Campbell became his right-hand man, playing a pivotal role in decision-making during the recent trade deadline.
Described by Davidson as a versatile asset, Campbell is content with his current position while remaining open to further responsibilities in the future.
For Campbell, it is a full-circle journey. He was an instrumental figure in the Blackhawks' 2010 championship, and now he has the opportunity to contribute significantly to the ongoing rebuild, with hopes of leading the team to another Stanley Cup triumph.
