Yeah, he played great over the course of the playoffs. Idk exactly what time he went on that shift, but obviously it was a fairly long one & sometimes I guess you just don't have enough oxygen going to the brain and you can completely lose track of the time left.
Pastrnak was also off most of the playoffs, and to no surprise it was announced he's been dealing with a thumb injury that was aggravated vs Columbus (along with a litany of others to Bergeron, Marchand, and I'm sure multiple Blues too). Though nothing to the extent of Bergeron playing with a fucking collapsed lung during that previous Cup run.
