Smith scored a goal and added two assists in Penn State's 11-4 win over Ohio State University on Friday.

EDGE Analysis

Smith is up to 11 goals and 22 points through 27 outings. He continues to impress as a scorer, matching his goal total from 68 regular-season games with WHL Tri-City last year. The Blue Jackets prospect has just a plus-3 rating, indicating he still has work to do in his own zone, but there's no doubting his offense.

Smith scored twice in Penn State's 5-4 shootout loss to the University of Michigan on Friday.

EDGE Analysis

Smith has been an excellent goal-scorer from the blue line with 10 goals and 19 points over 25 appearances this season. That's impressive work, though he had just 11 goals with 43 assists in 68 regular-season games for WHL Tri-City last year, which suggests a bit of good luck in 2025-26.

EDGE Analysis

Smith has done a decent job in his first NCAA season with 14 points in 20 outings this season. The Blue Jackets prospect is establishing himself quickly as a freshman. The 14th overall pick in 2025 will need some more development time, and he should be a steady source of offense from the blue line in the future.

Smith scored a goal on five shots and added an assist in Penn State's 5-4 overtime win over Long Island University on Friday.

EDGE Analysis

Smith has opened the NCAA season with four points in three games. The 18-year-old made the jump to college after racking up 54 points in 68 regular-season games for WHL Tri-City in 2024-25, which was enough for the Blue Jackets to select him 14th overall in the 2025 Draft. The offense is likely to always be there for Smith, but he'll be looking to improve his defensive game while with the Nittany Lions.
