Smith (lower body) will travel with the Coyotes on their upcoming two-game road trip and is "real close" to a return according to coach Dave Tippett.

EDGE Analysis

Smith was in pretty good form in the first two games of the season before being sidelined by this injury that has kept him out of every game since. Under the watch of Louis Domingue and Justin Peters, the 'Yotes have allowed 3.5 goals per game, so they're hoping they can get Smith back in the next couple games to clean up the mess.
