Hazan Tomato Sauce - canned tomatoes?

I'd like to make the famous Hazan tomato sauce recipe below: http://steamykitchen.com/8375-marcella-hazan-tomato-sauce-with-onion-butter.html

Problem is - I have three large cans of San Marzano tomatoes - but they are crushed instead of whole.

Has anyone made this recipe using crushed tomatoes instead?
