Mike Smith stopped 20 of 22 shots but it wasn't enough as the Coyotes dropped a 2-0 decision to the Los Angeles Kings Thursday. Smith gave up both goals in the middle period as his record dropped to 1-2-1 with a 2.50 GAA and a .915 save percentage. Smith is currently the Coyotes top netminder but could be pushed by Jason LaBarbera if he falters at all. He is a lower level second goalie in deep pools at this time.
