Sorry, Scorp I don't mean to call you out, but for someone studying to be a journalist I think it would be beneficial to take a deep breathe, step away from the situation, calm down, and then evaluate.

What is dumping Smith for a 7th round pick going to accomplish? It means we have to call up one of our struggling AHL goalies? Who are both currently injured?

Realistically what needs to happen is that Smith gets a week off from game time and Peters gives the net to Rittich. Start him 4-6 games in a row and then re-evaluate then. So on and so forth. Smith has sucked, but there is no need to run him out of town. He's a greater asset hoping he can tweak his game in practice with some significant time off and find his stride again than dumping him for nothing.
You had no need to call him out.
Scorp should be able to put aside real life and post here as a passionate fan. Doesn't matter what he's doing on the outside.
