Predators' Craig Smith: Points in two straight games

Last season, the "SmUrF" line of Smith, Kyle Turris and Kevin Fiala were one of the most productive second lines in the NHL, combining for 61 goals and 80 assists. Although Fiala is off to a slow start this season and currently skating on the fourth line, Smith and Turris continue to skate together and have four points between them after two games. Given his prominent spot in the Preds' lineup, Smith is a strong bet to challenge the 51 points he posted last year. Needless to say, he should be in your lineups whenever he takes to the ice.

Predators' Craig Smith: Three points in OT win

Smith has 20-plus goals in four of the last five seasons, having most recently tallied 25 snipes in 2017-18. The 29-year-old was buzzing in this one, playing just under 20 minutes and registering 11 shots on goal in the process.

Predators' Craig Smith: Revives career in 2017-18

After three consecutive seasons of declining offensive totals, Smith took a major step forward this year, falling just one point shy of the career-best 52 points he posted back in 2013-14. A huge part of Smith's success this season was the chemistry he enjoyed with Kyle Turris and Kevin Fiala on the team's second line, so there's a good chance coach Peter Laviolette will look to stick with that same line combination next season. Don't overlook the 28-year-old Smith at the draft table come October.

Predators' Craig Smith: Assists OT winner

The former Wisconsin Badger used his speed to beat the defender wide before feeding Fiala in front of the net, who ended the game with a sweet backhand finish. Smith now has just three points in eight postseason games, despite the fact that he's played a prominent role on the power play.

The markers give the 28-year-old winger a new career high in goals with 25, and he's also hit the 50-point threshold for the second time in his career. Smith is meshing well with Kyle Turris on the second line and could be a sneaky play to consider in daily formats as the season winds down given that he has four goals and six points in his last five games.
