Mike Smith

Coyotes' Mike Smith expected to draw call on Friday night

Arizona Coyotes goalie Mike Smith is likely going to start Friday's contest against the Toronto Maple Leafs.

What It Means:

Despite a shaky 7-7-4 record and a 2.67 goals-against average, Smith has actually put together a pretty solid season, and his .926 save percentage is the second-highest mark of his career.

Our models rank Smith as the fifth-best goalie option Friday night, projecting him for 27.1 saves, 2.3 goals against and only a 49.0 percent chance of recording a win.
