Smith was born in Ottawa, Ontario. [1] [2] [3] to father Harvey Smith. [4] His parents are originally from Montreal, Quebec but Smith grew up in Vancouver, British Columbia. [5]
Before college, he played in 2001–02 for the Queens Park Pirates Pacific Junior Hockey League (PIJHL), in 2003–04 for the Quesnel Millionaires of the British Columbia Hockey League (BCHL), and in 2004–05 for the Omaha Lancers of the United States Hockey League (USHL), for whom he played in the USHL All Star Game. [6]
He played two seasons in the NCAA with the University of New Hampshire, in 2005–07. There, he was an All Hockey East First team selection, an NCAA East Second Team All-American, and was named to the New England All-Star team. [4] [7] He had 63 points in 78 games over two seasons. [8]
He then signed as a free agent with the New York Islanders on April 2, 2007. [4] He played 8 games with the Islanders' American Hockey League affiliate, the Bridgeport Sound Tigers at the end of the 2006–07 campaign, notching three points and two penalty minutes.
During the 2007–08 season, Trevor split time between the Utah Grizzlies and the Bridgeport Sound Tigers, playing 53 games in Bridgeport and 22 in Utah. He was picked to represent Utah at the ECHL All-Star game, but could not play as he was recalled to Bridgeport. [7] He was named the Rbk Edge/AHL Rookie of the Month for February 2008 after scoring 15 points in 13 games. [4] [7]
Smith had a breakout year during the 2008–09 season for the Sound Tigers playing on the first line between Kurtis McLean and Mike Iggulden, scoring 30 goals and notching 32 assists in 76 games.

During the summer of 2013 he was recruited to play for Team Canada in the 2013 Maccabiah Games in Israel, but was recovering from an upper-body injury sustained during the AHL playoffs and turned down the request; his father was assistant coach to the team, and it won a gold medal.
