How that suddenly equates to wanting to extend a player with a year-and-half left on his deal makes no sense.
You are just flat out lying, as I've noticed you've got some sort of vendetta against me in which you consistently follow my posts around to disparage them. Cute, but pathetic.

Man, I kinda want to consider re-signing Smid in two years. He is so damn underrated. Deserved an assist on that Monny goal too.

Maybe it was tongue-in-cheek (doesn't seem like it) but you should probably relax with the lying accusations. The vendetta thing I can only chalk up to a wild imagination.

How so? By saying he's an adequate (and cheap) fifth/sixth defenseman, with a skillset that adds value compared to a "mediocre depth defenseman"?

He might be that, but he isn't that yet. He played less than 30 games towards the end of the year and looked okay. He has a lot of things you want, right shot that's nice and accurate can carry the puck but he makes some boneheaded plays. I'd like to see him back but not banging down the door to see it happen. It's mid-August and he's still looking for an NHL deal.
Right now I'd suggest he's an AHL/7th guy
