Mike Smith was a huge reason why the Coyotes are advancing to the Western Conference finals. The keeper made 32 saves in the 2-1 Game 5 win that eliminated the Predators, and he set aside 150 of 159 shots in the five-game series. "Their goalie was the difference in this series. As a team they played really well defensively, but he was the last line of defense," Pekka Rinne said. "We got a lot of shots but it was like other games in this series. We couldn't get anything past him. He stayed strong till the end and their players gave him a lot of help."
