Very pleased with the re-signing of Mark and how our D is shaping up already. We already have a similar line up to last season’s defence but with, IMO, a stronger netminder behind them.
Mark is not flash but does the little things better than anyone. Things that go unnoticed but it’s the shut down play, the shot blocking, and disciplined approach that makes Mark Smith a quality addition to any team. They say a sign of a good defensive defenseman is one that goes unnoticed, quietly doing their job. By the end of the night, you look at their +/- and you realise what a great effort they put in.
Welcome back Mark.
