Schmaltz notched an assist and two shots on goal in Friday's 4-0 win over the Red Wings.
Scouting Report
He was drafted as a playmaking center but has also spent significant time on the wing at the National Hockey League level. His deft playmaking skills come in handy on the power play. Is rather small by NHL standards and can get knocked off the puck too easily. Injuries have been a problem. Still struggles badly in the face-off circle.
Long Range Potential: Undersized, versatile playmaker (when healthy).
