If Smith's woes looked mechanical / instructional in nature, I would have some hope. However, it looks like he's lost in his head. He does the frustrated head shake immediately after the soft goals because it was exactly what he feared as the skater headed towards him.
BT is going to have to dig into his pocket to fix this situation. Having a starter showing himself even incapable of being a backup is a disappointing reason to ship out a prospect or pick.
