I was bored, so I flipped through the scoreboards. Obviously not a huge sample size, but I was curious.

In the past week, for games where one team scores 2 goals, it happened 20 times

6 wins
Isles 2 Jets 0
Flyers 2 Caps 1
Hawks 2 preds 1 (ot)
Canes 2 TB 1 (ot)
Kings 2 Sens 0
Caps 2 Wings 0

And 14 were losses, including a SO

So *if* it turned out that sample mirrored a much larger sample size, then 30% of games where a team scored 2 it should be enough to win.

So if that was representative, a team should be able to win ~1 of 3 when they only score 2

(Probably not exactly, of course)
