Yeah, injuries and age have caught up to him.
Go enjoy your millions on a beach and relax.

Looooooooooooooch

There should be no Smith apologists left after this game.
He's a good guy, competes hard, but he's just not an NHL caliber goalie anymore.

Some sort of Smith for Howard swap with Detroit makes sense. Don't know how it works, can't stand fan trades but this is a logical move.

Worst goalie in the league.
That’s mighty impressive.

Can't be trusted again. Gillies has to be better than this.

Paging TC? No reason he can’t keep winning games like he has been?

This is on Treliving. He's giving away points. He needs to act.

Smith cost the Flames another one. Should have been a Flames win Easily.

There is no option that is as bad as starting Smith on Saturday.

Flames would be chasing down Tampa for the league lead if they had even a semi-competant backup. I can't watch anymore games that Smith starts, it's just too damn frustrating

That's it hes done. Or he should be unless Tre has some sort of undying loyalty to him from their Arizona days. Good guy had a decent career but he is done. The Flames aren't running a charity here.

I think I would take any goalie in the league that I can actually name over Smith at the moment.

He’s had plenty of chances to redeem himself, time to move on.

I hear what you're saying, but how many WINS does Smith have?
Everyone knows WINS are the most important and telling goaltender stats.
WINS.

Starting a less than 900 save percentage goalie and expecting to win consistently isn't a winning strategy in the NHL.
