Smith stopped 32 of 36 shots in Thursday's 5-4 overtime win over the Flames in Game 5.

EDGE Analysis

The Flames struck first in the first period and showed some jump in the second, but Smith kept them quiet in the third, with a little help from a video review that disallowed a goal by Blake Coleman for a kick. Connor McDavid then struck 5:03 into overtime to seal the series win at 4-1 for the Oilers. Smith will get some valuable rest ahead of the Western Conference Finals, where he'll face the winner of the Avalanche-Blues series.

EDGE Analysis

Smith will look to pick up his fourth straight win to eliminate the Flames on Thursday. He's allowed seven goals in his last three games, though the Oilers' success has been more attributed to the efficiency of their offense in the second round.

Smith allowed three goals on 32 shots in Tuesday's 5-3 win over the Flames in Game 4.

EDGE Analysis

The Oilers had a 3-0 lead after one period, but the Flames clawed back to tie the game, with Smith letting in a bad goal from a 132-foot Rasmus Andersson shot. Ryan Nugent-Hopkins and Evander Kane then each scored their second goals of the contest to restore the lead and secure the win. This is the first time Smith has won three games in a row in these playoffs. The 40-year-old will look to close out the Flames in Thursday's Game 5 back in Calgary.

Smith will guard the home goal in Tuesday's Game 4 versus the Flames, per the NHL media site.

EDGE Analysis

Smith has won the last two games, allowing only four goals on 73 shots in that span. The 40-year-old has been supported by a nearly unstoppable Oilers top line. Smith will seek to win three games in a row for the first time this postseason.

Smith stopped 32 of 33 shots in Sunday's 4-1 win over the Flames in Game 3.

EDGE Analysis

Smith didn't have much to do early on, and he answered the Flames' attack well as they pushed later in the game. The 40-year-old was also on the receiving end of a charge from Milan Lucic in the third period, briefly leaving the game before being cleared to return after clearing the concussion spotter's protocol. Smith's starting to find his groove again with two straight wins, though that's the longest streak he's had in the playoffs. He'll likely be in goal again for Tuesday's Game 4 against a Flames team hungry to re-tie the series before heading back home.

Smith will get the starting nod at home against Calgary on Sunday, per the NHL's media site.

EDGE Analysis

Smith was yanked early in Game 1 after allowing three goals on 10 shots. However, he helped Edmonton tie the series after turning aside 37 of 40 shots in Game 2. The veteran netminder posted a 29-save shutout in his last home outing, a Game 7 victory over the Kings last round.

Smith stopped 37 of 40 shots in Friday's 5-3 win over the Flames in Game 2.

EDGE Analysis

It was another slow start for the Oilers, but they again battled back. Smith played a big part on the penalty kill and also set up Leon Draisaitl for a breakaway insurance tally at 12:36 of the third period. This was Smith's third win in his last four starts, with the lone exception being Wednesday's disastrous Game 1. The 40-year-old will likely get the nod again in Sunday's Game 3 back in Edmonton.

Smith will get the starting nod on the road versus the Flames on Friday, Ryan Rishaug of TSN.ca reports.

EDGE Analysis

Smith gave up three goals on 10 shots before getting the hook versus Calgary in Game 1 on Wednesday but will remain the starter heading into Game 2. Still, if the veteran netminder struggles again, the team may be forced to give backup Mikko Koskinen a look.

Smith allowed three goals on 10 shots in Wednesday's 9-6 loss to the Flames in Game 1.

EDGE Analysis

Smith lasted just 6:05 into the first period, though it was a couple of shaky turnovers by the defense that led to goals. Mikko Koskinen performed better in relief, stopping 32 of 37 shots, but it was very much a defense-optional situation in the series opener. Smith was excellent versus the Kings in the first round, so it figures he'll get a chance to redeem himself, though he'll likely need his defense to tighten up to avoid another shellacking from the Flames' relentless offense.

Smith will guard the road goal in Game 1 of the Oilers' second-round series versus the Flames on Wednesday, Daniel Nugent-Bowman of The Athletic reports.

EDGE Analysis

The Oilers will deploy the same lineup that clinched a series win in Game 7 versus the Kings, including Smith in goal. The 40-year-old had a 2.29 GAA and a .938 save percentage in the first round. Smith will also get a chance at some revenge, having played for the Flames for two seasons before joining the Oilers in 2019-20.
