The thing is he should be able to do that much more often than he does. He made those saves due to being in line with shooter and tight to the post. That is just starting goaltender technical soundness.
When he starts being dramatically reactive like he did in the shootout attempt, he opens up massive gaps like the five hole there.
I know he likes to steal the spotlight but less theatrics and more technique from Smith would go a long way to helping the team win.
