Pair of Third Period Goals From Reilly Smith Seals Win for Vegas
5 years agoVegas Golden Knights forward Reilly Smith scored two goals on two shots in Friday night's win over Buffalo, including the eventual game-winner. It has been a very productive two weeks for Smith as he has picked up at least a point in six of his last seven games, totaling eight points over that span. Despite his surge in production, it has not come from an increase in opportunities as he was collected only 11 shots over his last seven games, which actually falls below his season pace of 2.42 shots per game. That potential flag aside, Smith has still scored 52 points in 66 games and is on pace to score more than 60 points for the first time in his career and his current shots per game rate would be a career-high if he can maintain it.
