Oilers playing Smith now until his burst of confidence runs out is unwise.
If I were them I'd save as many game of this Smith for POs a I can because as soon as that first really bad goal goes in when he's out wandering behind the net or he's flopping around being theatrical he starts to spiral quickly.
Yeah, Oilers think they're special until they see Minny (8-1-1), St. Louis (9-0-1) and Florida (10-0-0) who've been just as hot or hotter.
It doesn't matter at this juncture. What matters is later. Don't tell that to Oiler fans though.
