Coyotes' Mike Smith: Grabs fourth win in five starts

Smith made 41 saves in Thursday's 5-3 win over the Kings.

Analysis:

Smith has gone 4-0-1 in his past five starts after winning just 11 of his first 32. The veteran netminder has had to face at least 40 shots in three of those five games, indicating that the defense in front of him hasn't gotten any less porous. It'd be surprising to see him keep these winning ways up much longer.
