Smith at Prospects Tourney

The Atlanta Thrashers' second game at the Traverse City Prospect Evaluation Tournament ended a couple hours ago, and they lost 4-1 to the New York Rangers to drop to 0-2 at the tourney.

The good news for Darryl Smith, who is suiting up for the Thrashers, is that he already has two points in the tournament, having scored a goal yesterday and added an assist on the team's lone score today.

You can read the details about the Thrashers' schedule at the tournament here, see the recap from a 6-4 loss to the Red Wings here and read about today's game here.

Here are the excerpts about Smith:

Sunday: The Thrashers extended their lead to 4-1 thanks a Darryl Smith power play tally 1:43 into the third period.

Today: Atlanta opened the scoring with an Evander Kane goal at the 15:25 mark of the first period to take a 1-0 lead. The goal marked Kane’s second goal in as many games at this year’s tournament, while Darryl Smith and Drew Paris each picked up their second points of the tournament with assists on the goal.

Full stats from the first game can be found here, stats from the second are here, and the team's full stats for the tournament are here.

Kane (the fourth overall pick in this year's NHL draft), Paris, Andrew Kozek (a second-round pick in 2005) and Smith are the only players with two points for the Thrashers at the tournament so far, so that certainly speaks well of Smith's talent.

The team will not play today, but they'll be back in competition Wednesday and Thursday, so I'll be sure to post those results when they're available.
