Past Fantasy Outlooks
2019
2018
Smith finds himself right on the borderline of the NHL and AHL. The 24-year-old Iowa native has appeared in 13 games for the Sabres, registering three points. He'll compete for a roster spot in camp but will be fighting an uphill battle to make it given the team's combination of veterans and NHL-ready prospects. To his credit, Smith has at least proven to be a productive minor-leaguer, as he's coming off a 28-goal, 58-point campaign over 62 games with AHL Rochester.
Smith was a pleasant surprise for the Sabres, being named to the AHL All-Star Game in his rookie season after scoring 44 points in 57 games. His strong performance didn't earn a call-up but it didn't go unnoticed by the Sabres, who have praised Smith and will let him compete for a roster spot at training camp. Smith has to prove his rookie season was no fluke and must do that in the AHL, but if the Sabres need extra help Smith should be one of the team's first options.
