He’s quieted down a little bit since scoring four straight goals and back-to-back game-winners to close out the Winnipeg Jets in Round 1, but Schwartz has proven himself to be a playoff performer and is a big reason why St. Louis finds itself in the Western Conference Final.
His nine goals — eight of which were scored at even-strength — ranks him second among his playoff peers in that category, while his 20 per cent shooting percentage is the best on the Blues. He was kept off the scoresheet in Wednesday’s Game 3 loss to the Sharks but he was still a big offensive force, registering six shots.
While we’ve known the 26-year-old to be a solid contributor to the Blues when healthy, his presence in Conn Smythe conversations is surprising considering the regular season he had: In 69 regular season games in 2018-19, the Saskatchewan native tallied just 11 goals.
