Le gardien de but combatif intense a mené les insulaires à quatre victoires consécutives de la Coupe Stanley, dépassant les minutes de pénalité le long du chemin

Billy wasn't my fave but his hard and consistent work never got past my radar. I played like he did and Hextall I gave it and took it.
Overrated
I admire the lengths he went to protect his crease lol nobody else has taken their stick and done this before him 0:50
…Билли Смит шо начальник шестого отдела…
…на хоккейной маске надо написать "I L Be Bad" и в музей Славы- на вечное хранение, бо Савчук играл без маски…
I would love to have seen Sean Avery play in Billy Smith's era.
Big John Davidson
My dad played with Billy smiths son
Billy smith and Ron hextall are the presidents of the hacky hall of fame
Billy the BEST!!!
Billy Smith Shutdown, the Best Offences. Money$
The greatest playoff goalie ever
… без таких кувалд как Савчук, Хоу,Орр, Савар, бергман, Шульц,Эспозито, Маховличи,Барберы,Курнае. Лафлер, Андерсон,Месье, Потвин,Челиос, гартнер и еще несколько сотен канадцев хоккей превратился бы в сквош, разновидность женского ММА…
… 31 островитянин шо катаржанин капитан Блад…
Billy Smith and Grant Fuhr were the Tress MacNeille goalies of the 80s. Vernon, Roy & Hextall were all Kath Soucies.
Two HUGE pieces to the Stanley Cup dynasty came from LA (Goring and Smith)
Born and raised in my hometown of Perth Ontario, Billy is a local legend. He is the reason why you can still find Islanders fans in a small Ottawa Valley town.
Billy Smith looks like Denis Potvin in the opening photo
He’s the real life Hanrahan.
It’s too bad Osgood wasn’t viewed in the same light, he was often overshadowed by the Detroit teams he played on even though he was incredibly consistent
Loved watching him play. Amazing playoff goalie
“Fine that’s the way I like to play” legendary
I hated Him. Still do. As a life long Bruins fan ya just hated him. Although He is a proven Winner , He was like The Bobby Clark of Goalies. Just a dirty player.
Hack the bone and blocker to the kidney…. think you might want to step aside? Battling Billy Smith was a hell of a goalie to watch.
that was a good time – still is…
Hated him back then, have great respect for him now.
Billy Smith was ruthless, shameless, cowardice, And that's just him as a kid
I miss this style of goalie
Billy Smith wasn't a guy you wanted to fight with if you went inside his goal crease because that got him really mad back in the day but also a 4 time Stanley cup champion with the New York Islanders
I remember back in78-79,bench clearing brawl against the Flyers and Billy was pounding away at,I think his name was Jim Kelly, not sure,anyway,they were by themselves near one of the benches. Kelly was supposedly one of the Flyers tough guys. Not so much in that case.
