Do you want Bouwmeester to be in the corner AND be in front of the net? Schroeder wasn't involved in that primo scoring chance so those two neutralized each other. It's up to Smith and the forwards to cover the rest. Unless you want Jay to cover all 5 guys.
If as d-man you commit to the corner you either come up with the puck or keep the puck in the corner or at least along theboards.

It is a total win (TKO) by a forward to get the puck to a teammate in the 4 foot area in front of the goalie while keeping a d-man in the corner.
