After a not-so-great start to the season, the New York Rangers have turned it around drastically. They’ve won their last six games, bringing their record to 9-7-2. However, amidst all of the success, there is one huge elephant in the room left to address; where is Brendan Smith?
Smith hasn’t played since October 31st, a 6-4 win over the Vegas Golden Knights. The 28-year-old didn’t have an insane impact on the game, with no points and a 24.24 Corsi-For percentage. He probably could’ve looked better, but definitely wasn’t the worst defenseman on the ice.
So far this season, he has two points (both assists) through 11 games.
