Or maybe he was injured in that collision with his teammate - can't remember who it was.
Yeah, Smith was not good, but the fact he wasn't on the bench in the third period smacks of an injury or illness. I'm not a fan of Smith as a goalie, but there's no way I'll believe he said, "Screw you guys, I'm taking my ball and going home." No team would keep a guy who did that.
It was noted on the radio the emergency goalie was gone from the press box.
