Ask Carey Price and his last troubling two weeks with mental demons. They still don’t seem to be gone, given his body language mid to late part of the second and after both Flames goals. I bet Price is probably talking to Smith tonight.
IMO this is 100% mental on Smiths behalf.
History reminder. Turek let in a softie, and then 3 more goals as the Flames gave up a 3 on 1 and and 2 2 man breakaways, in a game in Jan 2004 bs Tampa. He got booed on all the goals even though none were his fault after the softie.
Sutter intentionally didn’t play him at home the rest of the season, playing only st home in the 3rd period of Game 4 vs SJ, as SJ was well ahead and the Flames played Game 5 the very next night in SJ.
