I think the reason he's looked down upon is his price tag at that term.
Right now we're saddled with Stajan and Brouwer, both players we'd be better off removing from our roster full stop. Adding Smith to this group just furthers the log jam of average players in our bottom six, and puts another such body chained to the cap / roster for several more years.
If we can't land an upgrade, there's no sense wasting assets on a largely lateral move.
