Can he fine-tune his defensive game and become a true two-way weapon alongside Macklin Celebrini? Smith’s 24-goal, 59-point campaign in just 69 games marked a massive leap—raising expectations for a 30 to 35 goal season, especially with a retooled power play and improved chemistry on the top line. JD Young breaks down Smith’s evolving role on the wing, his impressive primary assist rates, and the ongoing search for a stable third linemate.
