It appears Craig Smith's greatest enemy is an empty net.
The Nashville Predators forward had a wide-open net in the final minute of overtime Monday against the Montreal Canadiens, but somehow managed to block his own one-timer attempt with his follow-through.
The blooper reminded many of a similar situation in 2011 when he skated alone towards an empty net against the Toronto Maple Leafs, and proceeded to shoot the puck over the glass in his attempt to roof an easy goal.
Thankfully for Smith, he redeemed himself in the shootout by scoring the game-deciding goal to give the Predators their third win in five games.
