Smith passed Nikolai Khabibulin and Ilya Bryzgalov for the club record and moved into third place on the Coyotes' all-time list with 127 wins. His 33rd career shutout and third this season could be a slump buster after Smith had posted a dreadful 4.08 GAA in his previous six starts. |
| March 6, 2017 |
Smith stopped 33 shots in his 300th game with the Coyotes on Sunday in a 2-1 loss to Carolina. |

| Feb. 24, 2017 |
Smith was feeling well enough to back up Louis Domingue on Sunday, but not well enough to start. |
Smith missed Friday's game in Dallas due to an undisclosed illness. The Coyotes are back on the ice Tuesday in Boston, which doesn't bode particularly well for Smith. The veteran is 3-12-0 all-time against the Bruins, has lost seven in a row against them and has a 5.96 GAA in his last three meetings. He has a 3.91 GAA in losing seven straight starts in Boston since his only win there in 2008. |
| Feb. 20, 2017 |
Smith stopped 27 of 28 shots before being forced out of Monday's victory over Anaheim nearly five minutes into the third period. |
Smith was shaken up after colliding with Ducks forward Jakob Silfverberg earlier in the frame. The goaltender briefly remained in the game before being replaced by Marek Langhamer, who preserved the 3-2 win in his NHL debut. It's too early to tell if Smith, who's posted a 2.28 GAA and a .936 save percentage in winning four of his last five starts, will be available for Thursday's game at Chicago. |
| Feb. 17, 2017 |
Smith didn't allow a goal for nearly 2 1/2 periods Thursday but did end up surrendering three on 44 shots overall in a 5-3 win at Los Angeles. |

| Feb. 14, 2017 |
Smith made 36 saves for his 32nd career shutout as the surging Coyotes beat the Flames 5-0 on Monday night. |
Smith's second shutout of the season gave him 21 with the Coyotes, tying him with Nikolai Khabibulin and Ilya Bryzgalov for the franchise lead. The Coyotes complete a back-to-back Wednesday in Edmonton, and it's uncertain if Smith will be back between the pipes. He has a 3.12 GAA in losing his last two starts against the Oilers after posting a 1.44 GAA to win his first two starts against them this season. |
| Feb. 12, 2017 |
Smith made 28 saves but had a late mistake that allowed the Penguins to salvage a point, though Arizona did win 4-3 in overtime. |
Smith mishandled the puck in front of his own net trying to make a pass, allowing rookie Josh Archibald to score the tying goal short-handed into an open net with 5:22 left in the third period. Smith later complained about the ice near the goal on that end, but that just may be an excuse for a struggling netminder who has a 3.30 GAA in his last five starts. |
| Feb. 10, 2017 |
Smith stopped 35 shots but was dealt a loss as the Coyotes fell 5-4 in overtime to Montreal on Thursday. |
Smith continues to be a good goaltender to target if you're seeking saves, as he's recorded 35 or more in three of his last four starts playing behind the Coyotes' porous defense. Wins are another matter, however, and he now owns a lackluster 3.25 goals-against average over his last 13 starts. |
| Feb. 5, 2017 |
Smith was the star of the Coyotes' 3-2 shootout victory at San Jose on Saturday. The All-Star goaltender finished with 38 saves, including five in overtime. |

| Jan. 27, 2017 |
Smith needed just 19 saves - none in the first period - to post his first shutout of the season Thursday in a 3-0 win over Vancouver. |
The shutout was the 31st of Smith's career and his 20th as a Coyote - one shy of the franchise record held by Nikolai Khabibulin and Ilya Bryzgalov. Smith is headed to the NHL All-Star Game as the team's lone representative. |
| Jan. 22, 2017 |
Smith bounced back from a rough last start to compile 45 saves in Saturday's 5-3 win over Tampa Bay. |
Arizona's All-Star Game representative entered the contest in a significant slump, having gone 1-6-1 with a 3.94 GAA over his previous six starts after surrendering six goals on 35 shots in 49 minutes during Wednesday's loss at Winnipeg. On the postive side, Smith is now 5-0-2 with a 1.81 GAA and a .960 save percentage when facing 42 shots or more this season. |
