I heard he was crashed into, got shaken up, let in two relatively soft goals, didn't look quite right, so they pulled him. Fear is another concussion, but I don't know for sure.
Anybody see what happened tonight? Was he pulled or did he get injured? Didn't have really bad stats or anything. Any insight would be great.
We get one of these - Don't waste it.

Tampa Bay goalie Mike Smith(notes) was shaken up at 10:39 of the first when Capitals left wing Brooks Laich(notes), who was penalized for interference on the goalkeeper, skated into him and made contact in the upper body-head area.
Smith remained in the game, but then left seven minutes into the second. There was no immediate word on why Smith, who missed half of last season with post-concussion symdrome, departed.

I'm in pretty good hands either way. I currently have the TB handcuff. If Smith goes down, Niittymaki becomes the go-to guy. Meanwhile, JDD was just dropped.

Just saw this posted:
Mike Smith is out with a neck sprain.
The team said Smith is day-to-day, although his neck gave him serious problems during his eight month post-concussion ordeal. This sounds like something that could drag on. Bench him immediately and pick up backup Antero Niittymaki.
