Smith, all things being equal (and assuming he stopped all the pucks he should), would have gotten the SO too. Kings were not threatening.
Hamonic was a beast, and Bennett had a good game too
I have no trouble starting Smith tomorrow, just hope the Flames keep the grade A chances against down.

Smith deserves every bit of the criticism given him. His game has been more than pathetic to date. I have cringed every time I have seen the opposition skating his way...just no confidence what so ever in his abilities to make routine stops.
And I think it is pretty presumptuous to assume Smith could have got a SO last night as well.
