Mike Smith is an absolute tire fire right now. I’ve never seen a goaltender give up so many goals that are going right through him. Pucks are bouncing off his equipment and in. His fundamentals are completely letting him down right now and that’s why he himself can’t even explain why he’s giving these goals up.
At this point, David Rittich should be given a string of games to see what he can do because Mike Smith is giving the team every chance to lose right now. He’s won 5 and lost 8 whereas Rittich has won 5 and lost 1. Really easy to see who gives this team the better chance to win. Not even close really.
