Smith is nothing like the goons you mentioned above (other than being big), he has talent and speed and is a legitimate prospect.

Ben Eager also scored 40 points at the same age as Smith but in less games.
Stortini had 37.
Mcgrattan was nearly a point per game.
Smith's production is definitely goon level. Higher level prospects that go on to have NHL careers almost always post well over a ppg.
