3 – 4Final

EDM beat STL 4–3. Expected goals were close to even (STL 2.9, EDM 2.9), so the finishing and the goaltending decided it. The biggest swing: Connor Brown scored at 19:39 of the third, moving EDM’s win probability from 51% to 97%. Jordan Binnington allowed 1.8 goals more than expected.

Net goals for one game are noisy: a single goal against on the ice or a lucky finish moves them a lot. See the card guide and Net Goals 101 for how they are built.
