Ty Smith Bags Another Point
4 years agoNew Jersey Devils defenseman Ty Smith recorded an assist in Thursday's 4-1 loss to the Isles, taking his point streak to four games. The 20-year old is now the 11th blueliner in NHL history to start off his career with a point streak of four or more games. He set up Nathan Bastian for a goal early in the second period which ended Semyon Varlamov's shutout streak at 142:10. Smith had three efforts on goal himself, adding one block to his line with two penalty minutes and a plus-one rating. The 2018 first-round pick is logging minutes on the second power-play unit, but all of his points have so far come in even-strength situations, which is very impressive to see.
