Best stick handling goalie that costs you a goal a game when he handles it.

Best puck handler in the league? Sure
Teammates love him because they don't get hit? Great

But none of that matters if you're continually giving up oopsie goals because of it.
Not an excuse, he should have not tried to set the pick. The question was asked why he didn't try to get back - that's why. He couldn't move.

Pop gun offence and questionable goaltending. Not a good mix.

No he didn't. He was trying to battle the Wild player himself, by sticking out his leg. Boneheaded play.

Smith UGH.

Putt Rittich in for Game 1 against Minnesota. Any argument for Smith starting is invalid.

That should be off limits for Smith in third periods.

I like his battle level there but gotta recognize once Hanifin arrived it's time to go back to your crease

The problem is that he didn't handle it. He tried to be a defenceman instead of a goaltender.

Rational or not, I simply don’t trust Smith in net.
