When defending the rush, Smith keeps his knees bent, head up, and the crossovers to a minimum to steadily guide attackers to the outside. Frighteningly physical, but also aware, he's always diffusing threats. He's an attentive off-puck defender, finding success with well-timed stick lifts and shoves. -EliteProspects 2023 NHL Draft Guide
