EDGE Analysis
Smith will unsurprisingly get the nod to begin this series after eliminating the Flames in five games. He's posted an 8-3 record, a 2.70 GAA and a .927 save percentage in 12 playoff contests. The 40-year-old can expect to face a lot of traffic again versus the Avalanche, who boast one of the deeper offenses in the league.
