Smith (back) is unlikely to suit up Sunday against the Islanders, Charlie Roumeliotis of WGN Radio reports.
Scouting Report
Continues to be a consistent scorer in his 30s. Is a good skater and shooter who can play up and down the lineup. He does not ignore his responsibilities at the other end of the ice. Is a solid player who can play an important role on a successful team. Has worked hard to improve his consistency over time.
Long Range Potential: Reliable, secondary-scoring winger.
