Buries goal in loss Smith scored a goal on two shots and blocked two shots in Saturday's 6-3 loss to the Flames.

Impact Smith snapped an 11-game point drought with the tally. He was scratched three times in that span, and he's likely only in the lineup because the Golden Knights are dealing with a handful of injuries. The 34-year-old winger has received less ice time and has shown less consistency than in past years. He's at seven points, 34 shots on net, 13 hits, eight blocked shots and a minus-5 rating over 30 appearances, production that won't make him a player to roster in fantasy.

Stays warm with power-play goal Smith scored a power-play goal in Sunday's 3-2 overtime loss to the Wild.

Impact Smith has two goals and two helpers over his last three games. The tally Sunday was his first power-play point of the season, as he's mostly been limited to working on the second unit if he gets any time with the man advantage at all. The veteran winger is still at a pedestrian six points, 20 shots on net, 11 hits and a minus-3 rating through 18 appearances, which isn't strong enough production to warrant a spot on most fantasy rosters despite his recent uptick in scoring.

Adds two helpers in win Smith logged two assists and went plus-2 in Saturday's 4-1 win over the Blues.

Impact Smith has three points over his last two games for his most productive stretch of the season so far. The 34-year-old winger is up to two goals, three helpers, 19 shots on net, 10 hits and a minus-2 rating over 17 appearances. The Golden Knights have kept him pretty firmly in a third-line role throughout the season, so it's tough to expect much more out of Smith going forward.

Gets back in goal column Smith scored a goal in Thursday's 4-3 overtime loss to the Islanders.

Impact This was Smith's first goal since Oct. 9 versus the Sharks. The 34-year-old winger has predictably played a smaller role in 2025-26, working on the third line and second power-play unit. Smith is at three points, 19 shots on net, 10 hits and a minus-4 rating through 16 appearances. While he's been an effective depth scorer in the past, that's unlikely to be the case this year unless injuries to other players force him into a bigger role.

Capitalizes in overtime Smith scored a goal on three shots in Thursday's 4-3 overtime win over the Sharks.

Impact Alex Nedeljkovic went out to near the blue line to play a loose puck, but Smith was able to get a stick on it. Shea Theodore corralled the bounce and fed Smith for the goal into the unoccupied net, completing an improbable win for the Golden Knights. The tally was Smith's first point through two games this season, and he's added four shots on net, one hit and one blocked shot. The 34-year-old winger is in a middle-six role and on the second power-play unit, but his age and declining ice time may make it tough for him to reach the 40-point mark for the fourth year in a row.

Golden Knights Re-Sign Reilly Smith To One-Year Deal The Vegas Golden Knights have signed forward Reilly Smith to a one-year, $2-million contract extension containing a no-trade clause.

JUNE 25 • THEHOCKEYNEWS.COM

Inks one-year contract Smith signed a one-year, $2 million contract with the Golden Knights on Wednesday, per Chris Johnston of The Athletic.

Impact Smith's new deal includes a no-trade clause, which was probably of particular importance in this case because Vegas traded Smith in June 2023, though the Golden Knights then reacquired him during the 2024-25 campaign. He had 13 goals and 40 points in 79 regular-season appearances between the Rangers and Vegas in 2024-25. The 34-year-old, who is taking a pay cut compared to his expiring three-year, $15 million contract, should provide solid value relative to his new cap hit while serving primarily on the third line.
