Smith was terrible but I don't think it if fair to give him most or all of the blame. This loss was a full team effort.

I think Allen and the Blues played pretty well as well. There were great chances in the 2nd that turns the game around very quickly that they defended well or saved.
Smith, conversely, is responsible for 2.
I agree it would have been much better to get a solid 60 out, and I'm sure that's what you'll hear in the locker room as well. But in the end, those 2 goals cost the game - and you expect your backup to have those.
