Panthers' Reilly Smith making his mark on young, talented team

When a young player is traded twice early in his career, many wonder if he's carrying baggage.

But there's nothing wrong with Reilly Smith. The 24-year-old forward for the Florida Panthers is having another strong season, and he has remained relatively consistent over his first three full seasons in the NHL.

Selected in the third round (69th overall) by the Dallas Stars in 2009, Smith was traded to the Boston Bruins with Loui Eriksson, Joe Morrow and Matt Fraser for Tyler Seguin, Rich Peverley and Ryan Button on July 4, 2013.
