Smiths penchant for letting in timely goals got into the teams head at times. When a team battles back, gains momentum and then your goalie is letting in stinkers has to be tiring, unsettling.
Teams even talked about forcing Smith to fumble the puck by shooting it harder around the boards and sure enough it worked.
Some constancy from Talbot and we should be in good shape.
