A player per day: Reilly Smith

Justin Emerson and Case Keefer continue their preseason series looking at every player on the Vegas Golden Knights' roster by finishing off the franchise's long-time first line with Reilly Smith.

Welcome to the new "A player per day" series from Vegas Golden Podcast.

Throughout the preseason, the Las Vegas Sun's Vegas Golden Knights podcast will go through the entire roster with short episodes previewing every player, released every weekday.

It will feature talk from assistant sports editor Case Keefer and Golden Knights reporter Justin Emerson on the player's 2018-19 campaign, expectations on the coming season as well as a future prop bet.

Today's episode is on Reilly Smith, the defensive stalwart with the underrated scoring touch. Smith is perhaps known best for his steadying hand in the defensive zone and on the penalty kill, but he is still a sure bet to top the 50-point barrier for the third year in a row.
