It is early in the game, lots of time for Smith to let in more, do not lose faith.

Don't think it's worth kicking dirt over Smith. We know what we're getting from him by now. Flames have got to play better in front of him than they have today.

Not a ton of help ?
I guess they are allowing some long shots
He hasn’t made what I would call a great save yet. Heck it could be argued he hasn’t made anything but average saves tonight .

Shots are 13-12 Red Wings, the Flames aren’t getting outplayed by much. A few defensive mistakes to be sure, but the Wings have also made some mistakes. Howard was the better goalie this period, but the Flames need to figure out how to get through the neutral zone with some speed. Transition game is lacking.

Another letdown game after a big game, this is getting way too predictable. Might as well check out now and look at the score in the 3rd to see if the Flames get their heads out of their asses

He's made a couple pretty tough save some including the last tip. I'd say he's had a much harder night than Howard.

Trap game? Trap game.
Not giving up on them though. Seen them come back from worse against much better teams.

Non sense ? It’s unprovable for sure, but neither were great goals
Most goalies stop the pass in the 2nd goal and it never happens. Smith was in his net and watched it cause he’s playing terrified/uncomfortable
The 1st goal is one good goalies stop half the time

Pre November team defense on full display in 1st period.
Odd man rushes, soft coverage, no battle.

Defensively the Flames have not been good for a few games now. I thought they were far too loose in their own end on New Year's Eve.

Exactly. That wasn't on Smith. Nor was the first goal. Since I got home I think I have seen five or six two-on-ones from the Wings (I hate the Wings so much). Just horrible. WTF is with this team in Detroit? (I hate Detroit)
