The Edmonton Oilers have connected with veteran goaltender Mike Smith during the free-agency interview period, reports TSN's Frank Seravalli.
Smith, a pending unrestricted free agent, is coming off his second season with the Calgary Flames.
The 37-year-old posted an .898 save percentage in 42 appearances during the 2018-19 regular season. He started all five of the Flames' playoff games this spring, winning only one despite finishing with a .917 save percentage in the series.
Smith just concluded his final campaign of the six-year, $34-million deal he inked with the Arizona Coyotes in 2013.
