Smith was yanked from Monday night's game in Philadelphia in the second period after allowing five goals on 18 shots.
Advice: It was the third time in eight starts that he has allowed five or more goals, so it's no surprise Smith has an ugly 3.64 GAA. With Antero Niittymaki playing well behind him, Smith could see less playing time.

Smith was pulled after allowing five goals on 18 shots in Monday's loss to the Flyers.
Recommendation: Despite some rocky outings this season, Monday was the first time in four starts that Smith allowed more than two goals. He's shown himself to be a bit inconsistent and Tampa isn't the most sound defensive team, so be prepared for some inflated numbers from time to time.
