Smith will start between the pipes in Saturday's home game against Columbus, Sarah McLellan of the Arizona Republic reports.

EDGE Analysis

Smith was a bit shaky in his last start, surrendering four goals on 33 shots in Thursday's 4-3 loss to the Kings. The veteran netminder will look to bounce back in a highly unfavorable matchup with a Blue Jackets offense averaging an impressive 3.18 goals per game this season, second in the NHL.
