Highlights from Yesterday
The away team in the 2023 playoffs thus far has gone 21-11-3, winning 60% of all games
The Islanders avoid elimination and defeated the Hurricanes 3-2 as Pierre Engvall and Brock Nelson had a goal and assist each
Dallas shut out the Wild on home ice,4-0, thanks to 3 assists from Roope Hintz and a goal and assist each from Jason Robertson and Tyler Seguin
The Oilers take the series lead 3-2 on the Kings after Nick Bjugstad scored twice and Leon Draisaitl scored his 6th goal of the playoffs (league-leading)
SOG per 60
While it's clear that SOG does not necessarily lead to victories (see Carolina Hurricanes chart above), understanding SOG per 60 does give a reference point for who has taken advantage of their TOI to get pucks on goal. Florida and Seattle are both facing tough opponents but have been able to lean on players like Sam Bennett and Jason Schwartz who take a lot of shots to throw pucks on net.
