Mike Smith has bounced back nicely from a slow start to the season. Smith has a 2.04 GAA and .925 save percentage in nine starts this month. He's done even better than that in his last five contests. "What we've seen in the last six to eight games is him getting back to that player that our team doesn't have to worry about the goaltending," Coyotes goaltending coach Sean Burke said. "They know that he's going to provide the kind of game where you have the ability to win, and he'll steal the odd game for you. That's really what you look for your goalie to do."
