I've been so impressed with what I've seen from Smid this year.
I thought that guy was finished, but he's been great this year playing controlled minutes.
But yes, he doesn't belong anywhere near a regular top 4 spot and I'd much prefer to play Engeland on the first pairing than Smid on the second for any stretch of time.
