Why Sharks Might Go Smith Over Michkov?

Will Smith has a pretty good chance of going to the San Jose Sharks at No. 4, what type of player are they getting? I start with a deep dive into Smith’s stats and what the analytics say about his projectability into the NHL. Then I look at what the public scouts and NHL executives are saying about Smith and how that can be projected onto what the San Jose Sharks’ biggest needs are in their prospect pool (12:00). Finally, I make the case for Will Smith from Mike Grier’s point of view and why Smith could be the choice instead of Matvei Michkov (21:00).
