VANCOUVER, British Columbia — Reilly Smith is usually one of the last Golden Knights players on the ice for practice.
Tuesday, he was one of the first.
Smith said he missed being out there with his teammates after the forward skated with the team for the first time since sustaining an upper-body injury March 6 against Columbus.
