Brian Dumoulin missed the last two weeks of the regular season and wasn’t great in the playoffs, though he still did play 21 minutes a game in a first pair role. Turns out there was a good reason he wasn’t all that comfortable on the ice - he had a major knee injury.
Brian Dumoulin was playing with a torn PCL and trying to get used to playing with a knee brace in the playoffs.

Jake Guentzel was pretty quiet in the playoffs too, only scoring one goal in the four games after a 40-goal regular season.
