Wyatt Smith, Fare Thee Well
Well, it had to happen some time. Sure, most of us are still scratching our heads as to why it didn't happen far sooner, but it's finally happened.
Courtesy of TSN (via MHH member thedoctor):

One team can only handle so many centers. Obviously Joe Sakic and Paul Stastny aren't going anywhere. Tyler Arnason may not be universally loved, but his place on the third line is pretty much guaranteed because he's still prone to very brief moments of absolute brilliance. And though both TJ Hensick and Cody McCormick are still precariously balanced in the lineup (demotion could come at any second, knowing Coach Q), their respective talents---scoring for Hensick, banging for McCormick (not the same thing, perverts)---keep them valuable.
The odd man out is Wyatt Smith. Like I've always said, Smith has never let anyone down because nobody expected too much from him in the first place. It's not personal, it's just the reality of the game. If he isn't picked up by another NHL team, I'm sure he'll do reasonably well in Cleveland with the Monsters. They could use some "veteran" leadership.
Wyatt, I wish you the best.
And thank god Adrian Dater doesn't have to light himself on fire now.

It went something like this
Coach Q: Wait a minute. You mean to tell me that Richardson can play center?
Granato & Co.: Well, yeah Joel. He's played center since the OHL.
Coach Q: So you're saying that he is better in the face-off circle than Smith like that goal we saw him create for Brunette last night?
Granato & Co.: Er, yeah Joel. He um, was always one of our better face-off guys.
Coach Q: Let me get this straight, you're saying that Richardson not only plays better on the offensive side of the puck, wins face-offs, plays on the PK but ALSO has a future with this team so we should invest in his development?!
Granato & Co.: Well yeah Joel, we thought it was obvious.
Coach Q: Why doesn't anyone TELL me these things!!
Granato & Co.: Honestly Joel, it's the mustache. It's absolutely frightening.
damnit
I screwed up my post and it got cut off. I can't edit :(. You mean to tell me, there's a preview so I don't screw things up? WHY DOESN'T ANYONE TELL ME THESE THINGS?

I forgot all about that! I haven't seen Austin Powers in years. That's kind of hard to believe.
