Scoring in the postseason

I read an interesting stat a few days ago that the Sharks have the lowest goal differential compared to any of the past Stanley Cup winners. The bright side is that the Sharks can win close games, the bad is that they have a hard time putting opponents away.

Speaking of scoring, Ryan Clowe and his 6-2 225 Ibs body has been doing the job by going to the front of the net. The same cannot be said for Jonathan Cheechoo or Milan Michalek who have been absent in the scoring department the first two games. While Clowe, Pavs, and Patty's line have been clicking, the #1 line needs to step it up for the Sharks to be successful. The double teaming of Thornton means that Cheech and Milan need to find the open space or create space for themselves (in Milan's case with his speed).
