Love listening to those morons in intermission saying Smith should start Saturday.

You can't blame Smith for that last goal, they didn't give him time to drop his Ensure Meal Replacement to get set, and his Depends were binding. It's the only explanation for letting that muffin shot in.

That's two awful stinkers allowed by Smith in this one, essentially robbing us of 2 points if the Flames can't tie this up.

They'd better start Rittich for the remainder of this home stand if they want a hope in hell of keeping pace in the division.

Not yet. He absolutely will be running with Rittich here if he can handle it. Book it.

And made it miserably hard on the team to win in about 4 others.

Feel bad for the players who put in such great effort only to be let down by the failure in goal named Mike Smith.

Holy ####, is Brian Boucher available? I’d take him right about now.

It's the end for him most likely. I'd be shocked if he's allowed more games than Rittich after that. Thats the kind of goal a GM throws his coffee cup against the wall and storms out of the box.

I firmly believe he is under unofficial pressure to treat Smith as the starter.

I'm waiting for Smith to hit his head on the crossbar after he stands up out of the butterfly. That's how deep he is in the net. Not good.

This isn’t a case of confidence or mojo. Mike Smith will not be an nhl starter after this season. And if we don’t adapt to this information we’ll be drafting much higher than we should.
