Your best players need to be your best players this time of year. I think the effort is tremendous, and they need to come through with some big-time plays and big-time moments. I think (Brad) Marchand has done that in the series. Pasta needs to step up.
He needs to be the dominant player that we're used to. He's doing it in flurries, he's not doing it as consistently as he did in the regular season. His linemates need to help, too.
We're not as good of an offensive team right now. Neither is Toronto. We gotta find a way, we gotta push through, we gotta dig in, we gotta win more battles that lead to more odd man rushes or leads to more opportunities at the net front.
