Friedman made the same comment during the 2nd intermission, and Hrudey laughed at him, saying it actually matters quite a bit to the goaltender.

The goal differential doesn't matter? Tell that to the Sharks top guys who virtually did nothing before tonight and all got on the board today. That could be huge for the remainder of the series. If I was on the Oilers I surely wouldn't want any of them to start feeling good about their game.
