They're not.

He has to take his turn.
That's the difference between, like, when he played in Toronto, when did the fourth line in Toronto,
Cole Smith had two goals Jim Nick Dowd had two goals and Colton Sissons had two goals six goals they combined for ten points in the series like it's not up to Mitch every night Mitch has to do his job and when it's his turn
He's got to take his turn.
In game four, he makes a fantastic play to steal the puck and find Howden in the slot for the first shorthanded goal.
Game five, he stays up on the forecheck, gets in the corner.
disrupts the play, makes a little subtle, it's a small thing.
He nudges the puck, pushes it forward so that Howden can go get it.

Marner sets up a great feed, sets up Howden again.
Howden scores.
Vegas is on its way, and then Mitch, he adds two goals later on.
