If he clears and goes to Hartford it counts against the cap no? Can’t believe if that’s the case we couldn’t restrain and trade for something

Wow.

Probably not going to get claimed, I wonder what the plan is with him going forward.

His contract was always a risk and the Rangers made a bet on him that he would be the player he was in the playoffs if given a true top 4 role instead of yo-yoing around like he did in Detroit.

Instead, he let them down from the jump by coming into camp out of shape. All season he's struggled to even play at a 3rd pair level. Honestly, Holden is better than Smith and 1/3 the price.

Remember when he re-signed and I said it was a shit contract and got yelled at all summer?

I mean, this is f***ing stupid, because Smith is a good enough d-man. Nobody can play for shit in this system, though.

More evidence that GM and coach are on the same page?

Good. Love it.

Jackass slacked off all summer and it showed. This isn't AVs fault - it's entirely on Smith.
