If he's hurting the team you pull him. I'm sure Smith 100% understands that.

Hang on a second here.
You are saying to pull Smith BEFORE the start of the third right? With a 4-3 lead?
If that's what you're saying it's a terrible take. Terrible.
If it's after the 4-4 goal, then yeah maybe. But not before the 3rd started.
