EDGE Analysis

Smith has struggled of late, suffering back-to-back losses to the Golden Knights and the Blackhawks while posting an ugly 4.00 GAA and .862 save percentage. The 39-year-old netminder will try to snap his personal five-game losing streak dating back to December in a home matchup with an Islanders team that's 8-7-3 on the road this year.
