That was the narrative that Derek Wills was loving too.
Look at the opponents and support that Smith got, and adjust for the two games close together where TB and Toronto pounded Calgary and each ran up 6.
I watched all of the games. Smith was an average NHL level goalie.
He was decent most games in the playoffs but let in 14 goals in the last 3 games and lost them all, and was back to himself in game 5
#### Mike Smith. He’s a dirty Oiler now
