Mike Smith Joins The Edmonton Oilers As The New Backup

It was reported for some time that the Edmonton Oilers were in on Petr Mrazek. Mrazek, the 27 year old had a brilliant year in Carolina, playing 40 games, posting a 0.931 SV% at even strength, allowing a GAA of only 1.88. The fact that instead the Oilers end up with Mike Smith, who in 42 games had an EV SV% of 0.906 and a GAA of 2.53, fans have a reason to be underwhelmed.

Smith Signs One Year Deal At 2 Million Dollars

The best thing about this deal is that is only for one year and the dollar amount is low.
