That sucks, Smith was playing fairly well.

"@OfftheIce620: #Coyotes attendance for #Canucks: 17220"

"@azc_mclellan: #Coyotes say Smith is currently being evaluated."

thats why we cant let smitty skip a start.

 

[Howler Scores]

Typical of the Coyotes season this year. All odds normally against them and they just cant go into troll mode like last year.

That's the first goal I can remember this season where I'm 100% sure Smith would have gotten it. Even in his current state he'd never have been that poorly positioned.

Have the Coyotes lost 5 or more in a row under Tippett yet?

 

[Summer Rose]

What a stupid non hand pass.

Bad give away by Lombardi in the offensive zone just before that goal. He had time to get a good shot off.

 

[CC96]

At least Vrbys looked pretty good tonight.

If I remeber correctly; did the Stars miss the playoffs under Tippett the next season after they went to the WCF as well?

You are correct friend.

 

[ClassLessCoyote]

You are correct friend.

I'm afraid history is going to repeat itself at this rate.

 

[SniperHF]

Pull the goalie now.

 

[Howler Scores]

Last shot

 

[SniperHF]

Good lord these guys can't find the puck to save their lives.

 

[ClassLessCoyote]

And the nightmare continues!!!!! **** the world!!!

 

[Howler Scores]

That's season. Smith being out due to a cheap shot hurts.

 

[zz]

That's season.

Indeed. I think we're done.

 

[KG]

This sucks.

Smith played well, but I almost wonder if him being injured would be a good thing, considering his inconsistent play this season. Call up Johnson and maybe he can be a savior like Jake Allen in St. Louis.

 

[GiveAFlyingPuck]

Not feeling the playoff vibe with this team. Last year was so much fun.

 

[ClassLessCoyote]

I really wish Donald Fehr had fought to have this season ended.

Johnson didn't look that great. We won because he had to stop something like 15 easy shots. I wouldn't count on him to fare better than Labarbera.

 

[KG]

I don't get all the love for Johnson. Yeah he played two good games for us but its not uncommon for a goaltender to call up and do well for a while before starting to suck. It's the consistency over long periods that make a goaltender good.

He looked good. Positionally sound, excellent rebound control. Those weren't fluky wins.
