Which Players Need to Step Up Most in Game 5?

On today's episode of Locked on Wild, we preview Game 5 by looking at which players need to improve upon their Game 4 performances. We discuss the Boldy-Fiala-Gaudreau line and why with the 4th line playing very limited minutes they need to help give the Kaprizov line some additional scoring. We discuss whether or not the GREEF line's performance was an off night or a concerning trend. We also look at why it is critical that all 3 lines provide at least zone presence to put pressure on the Blues depleted defensive core. We also look at the numbers throughout the Stanley Cup Playoffs in regard to teams that score first and why comebacks are so much more difficult when the stakes are higher. We finish by discussing whether or not Cam Talbot should start, or if we stick with Marc-Andre Fleury at this point.
