Corsi For: 57.8% (2nd)
xGF %: 55.5% (2nd)
xGF per 60: 2.95 (7th)
xGA per 60: 2.36 (3rd)
GF %: 52.5% (12th)
GF per 60: 2.96 (3rd)
Shooting %: 8.1% (19th)
Save %: .895 (31st)
The biggest surprise to me is even our Goals For is pretty elite in this view - 3rd in Goals For per 60.
If they fix the PP and get even average goaltending then I truly believe the team could do damage come playoff time.

I don't think you can take a lot from that as it's very similar to how Kings looked like in their post-cup winning seasons under Sutter. Good advanced stats but not good enough to make the playoffs.
