Mike Smith gives up too many easy goals. I wish he could get back to last years start and mid season form, but it's just not happening. I've been holding out and hoping, but I think the ship has sailed.
If anything, he's given Rittich some puck handling skills and confidence, but it hurts to see the goals he gives up, which shouldn't have been goals. Especially after momentum gainers like the Backlund goal last night.
