The problem is that half the time for the 10% brainfarts, it ends up in the back of the net.

I’m not going to defend Smith and I am more confident with rittich but I get what Burke is saying. The Flames d core had benefitted from not getting pounded on the forecheck because of Smith. It makes sense, I just wish Smith would make quicker decisions. Just keep it simple stupid. No need to get fancy.
