I would have agreed with you prior to this year's playoffs, but with yet another big performance I don't think it's a "might" anymore. We have legit sample size relevant proof with multiple linemate combinations over many years: Sam Bennett produces in the playoffs. It is known.
So, is a player that maxes out around 30 points in the season but puts up ~.6 ppg with a really heavy game come playoff time worth letting it slide for the season? Yes absolutely IMO.
