Thanks to Smith for battling through a mediocre at best regular season and good playoffs, but Calgary won't win anything with him.

No it isnt.
It was the skaters inability to adjust to what the Avs were doing...not Smiths.
As for the "wont win anything with him" nonsense...same was said of Billington as well at seasons start, or he would have been with the big club from day 1.
I'm not a huge fan of Smiths either, but reality is what it is.
Goaltending predictions are impossible...goalies league wide have better seasons some years and worse ones at other times. Carey Price sucked the life out of his team a couple years ago....should he have been dumped too?
