I wouldn't say average, I would say he is a great fit for the style of play of the Coyotes. Big, strong, plays the puck...prototypical, unlike Schneider or Bryzgalov for that matter... Smith is not a byproduct of the system, the system starts with Smith and then the d'men.

Pietrangelo is one of the best young blueliners in the game. You don't trade that guy for a streaky scorer and a mid-1st rounder. Much less ADD a 1st on the Blues side. Jeeez.

and why would the Coyote trade for another d'man and give up their premiere scoring forward when they need more scoring.I guess some posts (or should I say most on hf) are more fantasy than about success...
