Mike Smith back in goal for Arizona

Arizona Coyotes goalie Mike Smith draws a tough road start at the St. Louis Blues.

What It Means:

Smith stopped all 31 shots he faced in the Coyotes’ shutout win over the Washington Capitals on Saturday. Smith has won three of his last four starts while posting a 1.50 goals against average, .953 save percentage and one shutout in that span. In his first start against the Blues, Smith allowed three goals on 21 shots in a 4-1 loss. St. Louis has won five of their last six games.

Our models project Smith to allow 2.64 goals on 31.89 shots with a 31 percent chance of getting the win. He's our seventh-ranked goalie for Monday's five-game slate.
