Still haven’t seen this stat because I’m a newb for advanced stats, but I’d be shocked if any team this playoffs has allowed more high danger scoring opportunities than the flames did in round 2.


Yeah, I mean, just go back to the game winner. Hanifin plays a muffin up to Gaudreau who... elects not to make ANY physical contact along the boards, he is magnetically repulsed by Draisaitl's puck-possession field. No one has McDavid, and Markstrom doesn't make the save (on a very good shot mind you).

Not gonna win too many games with that type of play.
