I liked and still like the Smith pick. You need size to be competitive in the Western conference. It's pretty rare that picks outside of the 1st and 2nd round have the potential to become topline players. I don't think anyone here expects Smith to be a top line, or even a top 6 player, if he pans out as a 3rd line RW that makes our team that much harder to play against, then it's a good pick. His role is to crash the boards hard, wear down the opposing dman, be a front of the net presence, provide some offence and drop the gloves from time to time. Think like a bigger and meaner, more effective David Jones. Also, we had no one like him in our system so I was 100% on board with the pick.
