Smith plays defense, but opposing goalies should beware
The junior defenseman leads the University of Wisconsin men's hockey team in scoring, is the top point-producer among blue-liners in the nation and is in position to become the first Hobey Baker Award winner in program history.

Prospect shoots for award, national title
In the weeks leading up to the outdoor hockey game at Wisconsin's Camp Randall Stadium, Red Wings prospect and Badgers defenseman Brendan Smith eagerly awaited the atmosphere that would take place.

Smith boosts Hobey chances
Like many members of both Wisconsin hockey teams, junior Brendan Smith (Mimico, Ontario) reminisced about his childhood years after hitting the ice in the Culver's Camp Randall Hockey Classic Saturday night, the first hockey game at Camp Randall Stadium.

Smith, however, had an outdoor experience that will forever remain in his collegiate hockey memories as he led the Badgers with two goals in Wisconsin's 3-2 victory over Michigan in the winter showdown.
