If you can remember for that round, Madden and Holik were together. I believe
with Pandolfo.

If you can remember, Larry did not put Holik against Sakic until game four
of the series. I believe the only goal he had after that was in game 7 on the
power play

<BR>To tell the truth, I think it was a mistake to make him a third liner. I
<BR>know Randy was hurt, but we got almost no production from Holik in the

<BR>I don't understand why every clamps down on Holik for not producing massive
<BR>numbers. They play Bobby to win faceoffs and he is always the #1 guy on the
<BR>Devils to do that. Not Arnott, not Madden, and not Gomez. He gets in
<BR>everyone's face on the other team, and pisses them off. THat is what he
<BR>does. During the finals if anyone can remember it is Holik who would have
<BR>been the Conn Smyth Trophy Winner if the Devils had won it, and if any one
<BR>remembers the countless articles around the league that named him the
<BR>biggest pain in the ass to play against.
