The Captain has been on his game.

Jordan Staal is the first player since Mike Bossy in '82 to score a goal in each of the 1sts 4 Cup games.

And Bussi was the locker room player of the game and almost seemed embarrassed in the short clip.

And he's been a pretty amazing story this year.

He was claimed off waivers from Florida last October as sort of an insurance policy for 2 injury prone goalies
They really had no expectations.
Then 9 days later he made his first start...due to injury and made 16 saves in a 5-1 win.

He ended up going 31-6-2 after basically becoming the go to goalie for most of the season.
He was 25-3-1 at one point and signed a 3 year $5.7 mil contract based on the best first 25 games start in NHL history.
After going 6-3-1 after the Olympic break, Brind'Amour decided to start Freddy in G1 of the first round and just rode the hot hand until forced to pivot.

Bussi would seem the obvious G5 choice.
