Man, Smith is terrible. He looked just brutal on both goals. On that second one, again, he's so deep in the net, and he kind of launches himself forward when the shot happens. It looks so awkward. I really think he's still hurt and selfishly battling through it. Also two giveaways while wandering that he got lucky didn't end up in the net. He is a major risk every time he gets to start.
Fortunately, the Oilers just completely dominated the game from start to finish. I think the score was a little flattering for the Sharks. They didn't have a lot of great chances (other than those giveaways) and it felt like the ice was tilted the whole game.

Might have been a podcast, might have been Gregor’s TSN spot, but they had Woodguy on and he mentioned that a sure tell when Smith is struggling he falls forward on the puck. He’s anticipating the shot instead of reading and reacting.
I paused and rewatched that goal twice. He’s guessing. Non bueno.
