It was an okay save. Right time and opportunity. Could've been in a better position farther out of the net initially instead of sliding past the net beyond the right post with that weird right foot kick thing he did. The kick pushed the puck to the front of the net directly onto the tape of the Caps player.
Both Flames skaters back-checking had no reaction as they probably thought it was a goal and then we got lucky as hell with an empty net miss.
Smith should've been farther out, more confident, head up, and stick to a traditional butterfly and making himself as large as possible.
I don't hate Smith, but it's clearly apparent that the team doesn't trust him anymore.
I want him to turn it around as much as the next guy on this forum. But something needs to change. Either Smith, Sigalet or the powerplay with the 1 defensemen quarterback.
