Jimmy Hayes was in the lineup for two straight playoff games after playing in 31 games in the regular season. The 22-year-old, 6-foot-6, 221-pound rookie was re-inserted into the lineup to add some toughness, and he certainly fit the bill, tallying 15 penalty minutes in the game. ''It was really fun playing in that game,'' Hayes said of his playoff debut, which occurred in Game 5. ''You can definitely see it's faster out there. That's why you work hard in practice and make sure it carries over.''
