Seattle has scored 19 goals in this series despite an expected goals mark of just 11.6. With Dallas' Jake Oettinger playing better between the pipes, Covers_josh expects that scoring luck to come to an end.
It’s quite surprising that the series has gone this long considering how dominant the Stars have been. Seattle has hung on by scoring at an unsustainable rate even though it's struggling to create quality chances.
Through five games, Dallas leads all second-round teams in terms of expected goal percentage, and on paper, this looks like one of the most lopsided series in the playoffs, yet here we are in Game 6. If Jake Oettinger can play an average game in net, as we saw in Game 5, then Seattle will struggle to compete with a Dallas offense that ranks second behind the Canes in expected goals in the second round.
