No, not really. Team completely out of it has nothing to play for vs one still playing good intense hockey. Not fighting for jobs with zero pressure against still keeping the energy and emotion, battling for position going into the playoffs. Dube scored two goals vs Nashville, a game Darryl Sutter described as having "a lot of emotion and energy". While 1000 game veteran Milan Lucic said it was a top five game he's been a part of.
The situations are nothing alike.
