Playoff Podcast: Devante Smith-Pelly joins LAKI

With Matt Beleskey injured, Devante Smith-Pelly scored Game 4’s game-winning goal while filling in alongside Ryan Getzlaf and Corey Perry. The forechecker who has shown strength in digging pucks loose along the walls joined LA Kings Insider after the Ducks’ morning skate on Monday to discuss his role on Anaheim’s top line, how he benefited from spending the better part of the last two seasons in the AHL after a promising rookie season of 2011-12, and the 2010 OHL conference semifinal playoff battle against Tyler Toffoli’s Ottawa 67s, in which he scored the game-winning goal in a 5-3 Game 7 win.
