Does anyone have the article that details his somewhat bizarre journey to the NHL? I’d love to read it again. It might have been in the Athletic, when they actually cared and gave us a beat writer, so in that case, oh well.

Honest question. Is Akira also a Swiss name? I love the weeb jokes, but I gotta know.
If we end up winning the cup with current production value, you guys think Schmid wins the Conn Smythe? I think if he doesn’t falter all that much and if Hughes doesn’t pick up the pace it’s his.

What he did this series was absolutely insane. Schmid jerseys will pop up around the Rock for many years to come no matter what happens with him from here on out.

I’m genuinely happy for you guys, it’s refreshing seeing the devils do well in the playoffs. I’m rooting for you against the canes. I didn’t know you had such a stud in net.

Honestly if he is getting this kind of media attention now they should learn how to pronounce his name.
I have heard Sh-meed and Sh-mid used interchangeably.
