Yeah, Smith had a really good series, and he easily out-goalied Quick (as the numbers confirm).
What is amazing, and what would worry me as an Oiler fan (other than a general malaise stemming from really bad life choices), is that the series went 7 games DESPITE Smith out-duelling Quick.
If you were told, before the series started, that Smith would be the better goalie, then you would have to assume that the series is over in 4 or 5 games.
