And you joke about Smith but he should be coming off the board very soon, at least in my opinion. He's got as strong a case as anyone after Lomberg and Wotherspoon are gone. Smith will absolutely play some NHL games. I don't know if he'll even be replacement level, but he will have a career. |
How do you explain the less than impressive numbers in the WHL for Karnaukhov?
