I'm pretty sure 1-0 is the best lead in hockey. 4-0 would be better though, no one could comeback from that kind of lead.

If you're the Sharks, the worst lead in hockey would be 3-0.
Ridiculous save from Lack in the Vancouver game.

How the heck does this have anything to do with "advanced stats"?

When you put it like that, I could get behind advanced stats!

If you were given the option to pay 45 cents to predict the outcome of a coin flip, and if correct in your prediction you win a dollar, you may lose 45 cents on the first try. You may even lose 90 cents after the second try. But if you keep betting, you'll end up ahead in the long term. This is the value of analytics. They do not describe destiny, only the likeliest result.
So if the company giving you the option had an Analyst, you would not be given the 45cent option, and the two Analysts would cancel each other out. If two Analysts were put in a room together, and the room was locked from the outside, is there a dead cat inside?

^What?
Can't believe the Ducks aren't winning this. Shots must be like 20-8.

Penguins with a laughably ineffective cycle at the end of that PP and nearly give up a shorty

Kunitz is terrible. Misses a wide open net and then gives the away the puck behind the pens net on the powerplay and it almost ends up in the back of the net

Haha Canucks were supposed to get a power play, so Maroon challenges Kassian and then turtles when Kassian drops the gloves, goading him into a penalty. No power play. What a goof.
