Welcome to the goaltending that made the Arizona Coyotes the Arizona Coyotes. Smith sucked balls in Phoenix, and with the exception of a good 20 game stretch to open last season, he's sucked balls in Calgary.

Yeah they were so much better when he left and they finished dead last in the West

Smith is doing the trolling today is what I meant, letting in goals right and left setting them up to feel like world beaters.

Smith hasn't looked good today, for sure. But outside of the 1st period the Flames have played like a tire fire in front of him, so I wouldn't pin the blame entirely on him. Lots of brutal giveaways and a terrible effort on the PK hasn't helped.

Not to mention Calgary's failing powerplay that they need to bring up every 10 seconds

Meh concern for smith is over blown. Even the Oiler broadcast is saying 3 were puck luck scrambles.

It's so much more readable when you have a robust ignore list.

Calgary's played fine, the Oilers have scored two very fortunate goals and Talbot has been strong.

Chill people

Smith has been shaky but the game is meaningless.

As long as he cleans it up then no problem

Announcer really excited about their preseason record. I guess at least they're pumping actual hockey instead of offseason stuff. e=ng.

Smith also took the Yotes to the conference finals.

I still prefer him over Elliott.

Wonder if there will be a preseason champion ceremony right after the game is over.

I would consider trading Smith and Harvey for Elliott and Gritty
