You come out of the crease and play it, its 100% chance you have possession. Its not hard to carry the puck up the ice in 3 on 3, keeping the possession is the key to teams ot strategies now. Smith did the same thing 2 minutes later.

I was thinking this same thing while watching it. I'm not a hockey analyst but was able to figure out why Renne played the puck like that in a couple seconds.
For the Smith one I though he should have let that go for icing with the amount of time left in game. They had to rush to get in offensive zone just to get a long shot towards the net. IMO offensive zone faceoff in that situation would have been better.
