I don't think that's totally fair. Dustin Penner wasn't even drafted and managed to play top 6 for a few teams. Not saying Smith will because Penner did but sometimes big guys take longer to develop. Don't forget this was only his first full season. He should be a lot better next year and 30 goals wouldn't be unreasonable as he will be their first line RW.
