как нельзя < более> кстати (прийтись, оказаться и т. п.)come in the very nick of time; come just at the right momentОн был одинок - жена ушла от него перед самой войной, забрав двухлетнюю дочку, оставив его в таком состоянии чувств, в такой растерянности, что, как он сам с горькой улыбкой признавался, война для него пришлась как нельзя более кстати. (М. Алигер, Соловьиная песня) — He was alone in the world, his wife had left him just before the war, taking their two-year-old daughter and leaving him in such a state that, as he confessed with a wry smile, for him the war had come just at the right moment.
