Last Night Highlights

  • The Ducks defeated the Vegas Golden Knights to hand them their first regulation loss of the season. Because of the momentum the Knights were on, our rankings system gave the Ducks a 34.2% win probability, despite playing in Anaheim.
    • Frank Vatrano continues his scoring production with 2 assists and now has 3.55 Points/60 on the season (48th in the league)
    • Paul Cotter put 4 of his 5 shot attempts on target, leading the game in Shot Attempts per 60 (29.1).
  • The Devils, with no player recording more than a point, beat the Blackhawks 4-2 in Chicago
    • The Devils rank 15th in Players contributing to 80% of their total goals scored, representing some depth but still reliant on players like Jack Hughes. However, with Hughes sidelined due to injury at the moment, goal scorers from last night like Michael McLeod (3G/1A) and Curtis Lazar (2G/0A) stepped up to fill the scoring gap.
Frank Vatrano's Season Points/60 has continued to increase as his production relative to his time on ice has improved

Game Preview: Tampa Bay Lightning vs Toronto Maple Leafs

The Maple Leafs are coming off 5 games where they've lost 4, 2 of which were in either a shootout or overtime. Despite that fact, Auston Matthews scored another hat trick and has 7 goals in his last 5 games. William Nylander, who is an 11 game point streak, has 11 of his 15 points in the last 5 games. Lastly, John Tavares has 11 points of his 12 points in his last 5 games. While their recent scoring does not reflect the teams' outcomes, the trio accounts for a strong portion of the Leaf's scoring chances as a whole. Matthews, Nylander and Tavares account for a total of 34.2% of shot attempts, presenting a team scoring ceiling if they are limited. While the Lightning are 7th in the league in scoring, they give up the 5th most SOG against (per game) in the league. If they allow top players from Toronto to get chances, count on them to score.
