ELMONT, N.Y. — Mid-season heat check: Will Smith still is Will Smith.

He still is making plays that only he can make, a good sign halfway through a decidedly up-and-down campaign for the 19-year-old rookie.

This play was a bright spot in the San Jose Sharks’ 4-1 loss to the New York Islanders.

“It was delayed penalty, so I kind of knew I could make a play,” Smith said. “Just a little spin-o-rama, try to find him on the back end.”

What makes this missed connection so significant?
