So you got to be willing to go there. That&#8217;s where a lot of goals in the playoffs,&#8221; Perry said (0:12).<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<blockquote><p>&#8220;There&#8217;s somebody on each line that get to the front of the net that&#8217;s willing to go to the front of the net. And, you know what? It&#8217;s balance and, and that&#8217;s what we&#8217;ve been striving for. It&#8217;s a balance and, and not lean on the top guys all the time.
