I really didn't think Smith's save percentage would get worse, but he seems to be proving me wrong.

Is this Smith’s contract year? I guess he doesn’t want another one.

I think we are witnessing the beginning of the end for Smith. Love his compete, but having a tough game.

Awesome! All they have to do is score 2 more and not let another shot on net.

I think it is an easy explanation. Goalies go through highs and lows and Smith has proven more than Rittich throughout their career. He isn't leaning on 1 only but giving both equal opportunities.

To make a run at playoffs, we will need Smith to be on his game. We saw what happened last year when we relied on Riddich. Riddich could falter just as easy as Smith picking it up so I like that he is keeping them both in the game right now.

Smith doing his best to give all NHLers, who don't have any goals, some confidence.

Mike Smith is swimming like it's a 100m butterfly on every shot.

Please start Rittich in the 3rd. Smith looks like he's on stilts out there

I cringe every time the puck goes near our net. Smith does not look confident. Seems to be struggling to make even routine saves.
