Andrew "Soupy" Campbell[1] (born February 4, 1988) is a professional ice hockey player. He currently plays with and is the captain for the Toronto Marlies in the American Hockey League (AHL). Campbell was drafted by the Los Angeles Kings in the 3rd round, 74th overall of the 2008 NHL Entry Draft. Campbell was born in Caledonia, Ontario and grew up in Caledonia, Ontario.

Playing career

Campbell played three seasons of major junior hockey with the Sault Ste. Marie Greyhounds of the Ontario Hockey League (OHL).

Campbell began his professional career playing for the Manchester Monarchs of the American Hockey League (AHL) during the 2008–09 AHL season. On July 3, 2012 he was signed by the Los Angeles Kings to a two-year Entry-level contract.[2]

On April 5, 2014, after playing 444 games in the AHL,[3] Campbell finally made his NHL debut to skate 14:41 with the Los Angeles Kings in a 2-1 loss against the Vancouver Canucks.[4]

After spending the first six years of his professional career entirely within the Kings organization, Campbell left as a free agent to sign a one-year contract with the Arizona Coyotes on July 1, 2014.[5] In the 2014–15 season, Campbell was originally assigned to AHL affiliate, the Portland Pirates. Campbell would later be recalled and remained in the NHL for the duration of the season with the lowly Coyotes, appearing in 33 games from the blueline.

Despite experiencing a break through season in the NHL, Campbell was unable to attract an NHL offer as a free agent and on July 3, 2015, was signed to a one-year AHL contract with the Toronto Marlies.[6] Later that year, on September 29, Campbell signed a two year, two-way contract with the Marlies' parent club, the Toronto Maple Leafs.
