Except Smith said himself he was barely played last season when he had the single point. Coach did not give him the ice time to rack up the points.
If anything I'd throw last season away and focus on what he was able to show this year and how he can build on that.
With his maturity and upswing in production who knows what he projects to be, but his character and physcial attributes certainly are that of an NHLer.
