When you're coming into a game down 4-0, 6-1, 3-0, you're facing a very hot opponent and being asked to hold things down. Schneider is a future starter, not sure where yet...

And Timmy Thomas is essentially god this series.

And coulda, shoulda, woulda's never matter in the postseason. I agree with Laces Out, it doesn't matter what the score is what matters is wins. Being opportunistic is a good thing in the playoffs, especially against a goalie like Thomas who you have to take advantage of every small window against. Even outscoring Vancouver 30-6 or whatever it is doesn't even necessarily mean you've dominated the series when it's tied 3-3, it means you've dominated a few wins and haven't been able to do all that is necessary to win the rest.

And you're surrounded by the ones you blah
Death shows up... anddd blah, blah, blah.
