3 – 5Final

PIT beat CBJ 5–3. Expected goals were close to even (CBJ 3.0, PIT 3.2), so the finishing and the goaltending decided it. The biggest swing: Jack Roslovic scored short-handed at 8:04 of the third, moving CBJ’s win probability from 18% to 47%. Jet Greaves allowed 1.6 goals more than expected.
