Shots fired.

Mike Smith took a not-so-subtle dig at his former Arizona Coyotes teammates Monday in a playful moment during a radio interview in his new NHL home.

The new Calgary Flames goaltender uncorked the zinger after being asked by Sportsnet 960's Rob Kerr how many people have already told Smith they can't wait to see him fire passes "right up the gut" to Johnny Gaudreau.

"I'm really looking forward to passing (to) some of these guys that can actually score!" Smith said with a laugh, before adding, "Did I say that on live radio?" with more laughter.

Smith was making the rounds after being introduced - along with newly acquired defenseman Travis Hamonic - to the local media.

The comment came near the end of an otherwise uneventful 12-minute interview, so it's probably best not to read too much into it, but it's still surprising to hear Smith be so forthright about his former organization, even if it was in jest.

The 35-year-old goalie was traded by the Coyotes to the Flames in a package including netminder Chad Johnson on June 17. Hamonic was acquired by Calgary from the New York Islanders on Saturday.
