I've looked into this before, never got anything super interesting out, just about what I expected. The interesting studies I've seen have been time-based, showing who gets more shot attempts in the 10, 20, 30 seconds following a faceoff win/loss. Can't remember who exactly did those pieces, but I found it interesting.
Anyhow, here's Corsi and Fenwick vs Faceoffs for each team from the start of last season to now (just over 100 games). All numbers are at 5v5, score close situations (faceoff numbers as well). Fairly weak (but positive) correlation, you can draw your own conclusions out of it.
