As inexperienced as Skinner is, Campbell only has one season with more than half the games played. That earned him a 5x5 deal in the offseason goalie market + the Ken Holland effect. I still worry about that deal turning into more expensive longer Mikko Koskinen deal
If we knew Skinner would be a viable 1A/B by the end of last year, perhaps we wouldn't have to go as all in on the second goalie.

I wanted to see more of Skinner last year, but I'm fine with the tandem we have now. IMO, Campbell's contract >>>> Koskinen. I don't think Campbell will ever be a Vezina finalist, but I think (hope) he will be solid for the length of his deal. And if all goes well, Skinner should be getting a raise and short bridge deal at the end of this year, and then start challenging for the starter's job in a couple of years.
This to me is the best tandem we've had in forever, and at only $5.75M, I think it's pretty good value.

Campbell playing some of the worst hockey of his career so far for us. He hasn't even touched a point where the load of being #1 would be a factor. He will bounce back I bet and it's looking like we could have a very solid pair of goalies.
Wanted to see Skinner more last year too, but I don't think there was any situation where we could have comfortably come into this year thinking Skinner is a 50-60+ game guy for us. That would have been a disaster.
