Just one week into the 2015 postseason and already we've had quite a good bit of craziness; bicycle kicks, shootouts, comebacks, free kick brilliance... But in the goal scoring realm perhaps nothing has been more impressive than Montreal captain Patrice Bernier who was held scoreless in 20 matches this season, and 26 more last season, and is tied for the playoff scoring lead with two goals through the Impact's first two matches this postseason (both wins). Bernier isn't the only player held scoreless during the regular season to score in this year's playoffs though as Seattle's Erik Friberg scored the game winner against the Galaxy in the knockout round after going scoreless since his acquisition in June. Here's a rundown of all your goal scorers broken down by nationality through the first week of the 2015 postseason.
