Devante Smith-Pelly’s Unfortunate End In Washington

There was never a real proper goodbye for the 2018 Stanley Cup Finals unsung hero, Devante Smith-Pelly, but with news of him signing a professional tryout offer with the Calgary Flames, now is as good a time as any to wish him the best of luck outside of Washington.

Originally brought in to fill a roster spot for little money back in the 2017, he and Alex Chiasson both did, I believe, just enough to stay with the team during the 2017-18 season. Smith-Pelly scored 7 goals and added 9 assists for 16 points in 75 games, numbers that don’t normally get one re-signed.
