Context goes both ways. I'm not saying BSD has been notably better as of recently, but I think he deserves as much slack as Smith got through his first 25 games, which was a metric f-ton.

Very true. But the numbers don't lie and I think Tre goes off them more than we realize. Both of the goalies have almost the same numbers if you go even further back.
Last 60 days:
Smith 10GP/5W/3.17/.899
BSD 14GP/9W/3.13/.896
I think the wins are team based, but there is a "make the big save" that can't be measured, but the closest stat for it would be wins. So BSD has it on win%. But there's no chance BSD gets the Smith leash because he wasn't a Coyote and isn't a "proven" NHL goalie... If that even applies to Smith anymore.
