Smid was playing #5 minutes and not all that well.

Though don't like that they sold low to a rival in need. Also, not a fan of Brossoit by any means. Thought his stats were padded on a stacked oil kings team

Yes, but the season prior he put up pretty good numbers something in the 60's for a point total I believe. The Flyers had Carter, Richards, Gagne and JVR that year.

And Briere. Pronger was still healthy.

Man what a good team. Good thing they liked 4+mil on Meszaros and then decided they needed to clear 11 mil to fit Bryz and Jagr in.

There's a reason why they haven't won since the 70's. You take the Hawks to a game 6 in the Stanley cup, just to blow the whole team to pieces the next summer because you got swept. Just dumb, reactionary moves by Homlgren.

He was a big factor for their success. They gave up a fair number of odd man rushes and high quality chances. High risk, high reward hockey. And he let them do it because he was good enough.

The ability to move is damn near everything in goaltending. It seperates a guy like Markstrom from a guy like Reimer. Brossoit has athleticism out the anus. He's a marked improvement over Bunz and Roy.

Prior to this season he was solid though, do you think he's regressed at age 27 or just not fitting into Eakins system?

The guy was a good dman until Eakins was coach.

Now Eakins is coach and everyone sucks or a 27yr old regressed rapidly in 17 games.

This^

I remember hearing about Broissoit doing well with the Oil Kings not too long ago and wishing we had a goalie prospect that was doing well instead of hearing great hope with zero delivery.

He wasn't very good last year either.

I think its more a chemistry thing. Doesn't fit with Schultz or Petry.

you act as if he's 33 years old and on the decline. he's 25. he scored 28 goals as a 23 year old, and was on pace for 27 as a 24 year old. to say he's going to regress for the rest of his career is a little crazy.

he's young, and he's going to get better, and he will score 30 a few times in a his career. every single year? maybe not. but i can't imagine him not scoring at least 20-25 barring a bad year or 2.

Dtf aint an idiot. He knows the game, but he's the king of definitive, closed book statements that are actually just his opinion

Yup, I think it s more of Smid not fitting into Eakins "system" than Smid regressing at 27. Oilers sold low IMO.
