Reilly Smith

Another "Misfit" who set the standard for the team offensively was Reilly Smith. The winger scored 124 goals (third all-time) and 162 assists (fifth all-time) with the Vegas Golden Knights. He was an important asset on the power play, scoring 27 goals on the man advantage (third all-time).

Like William Karlsson, Smith also had a knack for scoring short-handed goals. He had 12 goals in such a situation, making him an all-around threat. Back in the day, the "Misfit Line" made their money by being flexible in any situation. That meant adapting to the style of play and pinning their opponents down. In turn, they became an important asset for Vegas.

There's no doubt he'll be missed. He didn't require much to be successful and turned turnovers into scoring opportunities. However, Smith left behind a legacy where he made his living off being an incredible special teams player and all-around goal-scorer. That's how fans will remember the winger for his Vegas tenure, for he was one-of-a-kind.
