But if we have Turris in place of Draisaitl, well ya, we’re in a lot of trouble then, whether Smith plays well or not. I will admit, there’s a lot of “ifs” in my hypotheses. But sticking with Oilers in 7!

Yeah, if he keeps playing at .930+ it'll be a long series.
Where Smith has the most trouble is moving laterally. The Kings were unable to get him moving. Hopefully the Flames do a better job of it.
