CANTLON’S CORNER: BRENDAN SMITH TRADE DEADLINE AN ODD TIME

BY: Gerry Cantlon, Howlings

HARTFORD, CT- The trade deadline has had some odd, and even comical moments for the Smith family.

“If something should happen people will know before I do anyhow.

“My little brother (Reilly Smith of the Las Vegas Golden Knights) was traded twice and found out on social media before he got a call from the team.

“First time was in the summer on draft day. He was bringing his boat back in and his nephew greets him, ‘Hey, you’ve been traded!”

The second time, TSN got a hold of him before the team did.
