Mike Smith News
Edmonton Oilers goaltender Mike Smith has failed his physical ahead of training camp and is set to go on long-term Injured Reserve. The veteran netminder battled through various injuries last term and he's not expected to feature at all during the upcoming season. The Oilers snapped up Jack Campbell on a five-year deal in the summer, and the former Maple Leaf looks set to get a lot of burn. He had a strong campaign in 2021-22 with a 31-9-6 record and a career-high five shutouts, but Campbell has also been injury-prone in the past few years, so it will be interesting to see how well he can cope with the heavy workload.
Edmonton Oilers goalie Mike Smith will be the probable starter in Game 2 of the Western Conference Finals. Smith was lit up in Game 1, giving up six goals on 25 shots before being yanked midway through the contest in favor of 33-year-old Mikko Koskinen. The Kingston, Ontario, native has produced an 8-2-1 record with a 3.12 goals-against-average and a .917 save percentage. He's particularly struggled in Game 1's and has been able to bounce back as the last two series progressed. Colorado also has their goalie questions as starting goalie Darcy Kuemper went down with an upper-body injury, and backup Pavel Francouz will be between the pipes.
Edmonton Oilers goalie Mike Smith was pulled in the second period in an 8-6 loss to the Colorado Avalanche in Game 1 of the Western Conference Finals. He was yanked early in the second period after giving up six goals on 25 Colorado shots on goal. Mikko Koskinen came in to replace the veteran netminder. Smith being pulled early in a series is becoming a common occurrence. In the second round against Calgary, Smith gave up three goals in six minutes in Game 1 of the series.
Edmonton Oilers goaltender Mike Smith has had a few rough outings during the 2022 Stanley Cup Playoffs, but he's taking a four-game winning streak into the Western Conference Finals. The 40-year-old boasts an 8-3 record overall for the postseason with a 2.70 goals-against average, a .927 save percentage and two shutouts. Edmonton lost the regular-season series against Colorado 2-1, but Smith went a solid 1-0-1 in the matchup. It's a clash against a team that has scored 4.30 goals per game during the playoffs and the Oilers will need Smith to stand tall throughout the series.
