Playoffs:

It’s tough to talk about player grades from the playoffs because that Dallas Stars series was a strange one. Perreault tallied a goal in Game 1 and then totaled three points in Game’s 4 and 5. So, Perreault was continuing to provide some depth on offense, but it would end in the next series. Perreault only registered one point in the seven games against the Los Angeles Kings. He even saw a drop in his minutes to below 10 minutes in Game’s 5 and 6. However, with all this said, Perreault missed Game 7 of the Stars series and Game 4 of the Kings series, both the same lower body (groin) injury that forced him to miss time back in December. So, he could have been fighting through that all playoffs, which could have been the reason for his drop in TOI and performance.
