What about the observation that the team is very poor at winning when down after two periods?
I know this is a narrative but is it true?
We think the boa is important but are those games actually more meaningful? I think the oilers are in their heads but I don’t think games against the oilers are actually any more important than any conference game
The playoffs we have a sample size of 4 games on which their goalie soiled himself
But this is a team that has played well against some of the top teams
It starts with how we define important games
Most teams lose if trailing after 2. Comeback wins are memorable but outliers
