Having watched all the games, imo the only reason Vegas isn't winning is because their players can't even hit a wide open net and because Khudobin has outplayed Lehner.

Game 4: the ES scoring chances were 17-14 in favor of Vegas. High danger 8-7 in favor of the stars. Vegas excelled with the man advantage so the final tally all situations was 30-22 but still close in high danger 15-12.
Game 3: ES 19-17 Vegas. High danger 12-6 Vegas. 30-20 and 16-8 Vegas.
Game 2. ES 20-17 Dallas. Hugh danger 11-8 Vegas. All situation 23-22 Dallas. High danger 15-9 Vegas.
Game 1: large advantage to the Stars everywhere.
Essentially, game 1 and 3 went the way the underlying stars would suggest. Games 2 and 4 were not that lopsided with scoring chances. The difference is the Knights lack some finish right now and the stars are on a hot streak. This isn’t the same as the Canucks vs Vegas where Demko was channeling several hall of fame goaltenders at once while seeing 50 scoring chances.
