What It Means:

Smith will make his first start in a week as he looks to snap his eight-game winless streak (0-7-1). He owns a 3.27 goals against average with a .885 save percentage during the slump. The coaching staff picked the right team for Smith to face as he tries and break his streak. The Jets take the fourth-lowest shots on the road, scoring only 2.48 goals per game in 23 road starts.

Our models have Smith as the second-best value option on Friday with 2.4 goals allowed, 26.3 saves, and a 63.0% chance of winning at an only $8,100 price tag.
