No, he was benched because the team was desperate to get Smith into form. Since the start of the season there is that theory how Flames can only be succesfull with Smith, because his puck playing ability will be a difference maker in the post season. He is definitely better at the moment, the only win we have in this series is because of him. The biggest difference is how badly MacKiller outplays Monahan, every single shift.
