He was their best defender, as a Gio was saddled with Hamilton, Brodie looking terrible without Gio, as supposed Selke candidate Backlund a team wore in plus minus. By the time he returned after the injury, Rittich and Gillies had struggled and the team was out...but again, the types of goals he was letting in were nowhere near as weak nor was he fighting the puck like he is.
Regardless, current is as current is. It’s a problem if he doesn’t snap out of it.

If you think Smith was good post injury last year then there is no need to bother having an argument. And the Gio Hamilton thing is further proof.
