Hey ... Les asked stupid questions, but at least he ASKED questions.

Smith goes to work for Buffalo.
Is that speculation? I can't find anything on this.
Slugs Twitter. And the first comment tells you all you need to know about that fan base.

going to the armpit of America is a better job?
Coaching Rasmus Dahlin was certainly a big part of the draw. As well as coaching under Housely, I'd assume.
Smith and his family may have grew tired of the nicer winters here and wanted to head somewhere a bit more frigid.
I don't feel like we lost too much here, nor did the Buffalouse gain much. Just my opinion.
Smith also grew up in the London, Ontario area and that's closer to home as well. I get the reason for the resignation-- working with a former teammate, coaching and grooming one of the best defensive prospects in forever and being closer to home. My only issue is the timing-- not having your complete staff in place at prospects camp. Would have preferred that, but it's not insurmountable.
Maybe Smith is fearful that the Canes are improving and it would impact the time he could spend at his summer cottage on Lake Huron.
My pure speculation...Brindy and Daniels got multi-year deals. Smith asked for one and was told no--and then offered an out like Peters---find another job, and we'll let you go (but we aren't paying you not to work).
