Mike Smith, noted Jonathan Quick impersonator, chased down Timo Meier late in the first period of Saturday’s game after a teammate collided with the Arizona netminder and knocked off his mask. Smith mistakenly thought Meier crashed into the goalie, hence his frustration.
What came next was a mass of bodies behind the Arizona net with Smith trying to get after the San Jose rookie. It was a wild scene, but not exactly the first time we’ve seen Smith lose his cool. It ended up working out just fine for the Sharks as both Smith and Luke Schenn got roughing minors while San Jose didn’t pick up a single penalty.
