Campbell played two years of junior hockey in the Alberta Junior Hockey League with the Canmore Eagles and Olds Grizzlys before moving on to the NCAA in 2004 with the University of Alaska Fairbanks. After three seasons of college hockey, Campbell turned pro, signing as a free agent with the Columbus Blue Jackets on March 19, 2007.[1] Campbell made his NHL debut on March 30, 2007 against the Chicago Blackhawks.[2]
After starting the 2007–08 season with the Syracuse Crunch in the AHL, Campbell was traded by the Blue Jackets with Philippe Dupuis to the Colorado Avalanche for Mark Rycroft on January 22, 2008.[3] He was then assigned to the Avalanche's affiliate the Lake Erie Monsters.
In the 2008–09 season, Campbell spent the entire year with Lake Erie playing a career high 74 games. Campbell was recalled by the Avalanche on February 19, 2009, but didn't play a game before returning to the Monsters.[4]

Without a new contract offer from Praha, Campbell returned to North America and signed a one-year contract with Texas based Rio Grande Killer Bees of the CHL.[7] After an unsuccessful try-out at the AHL's San Antonio Rampage training camp, Campbell started the 2010–11 season with the Killer Bees.[8]
On August 25, 2011, Campbell signed a one-year contract in the ECHL with the Chicago Express.
