Without having heard him (and based on your report) I think you are misinterpreting what Johnson wants from what he said. He will be very hard pressed to find a situation next year in which he will get +30 starts. As for Smith, I think ideally a team does not want their goalie playing more than 60-65 games in the regular season. Goalies who play heavy workloads have a tendency to wear down in later playoff rounds.
