0 – 2Final

TBL beat UTA 2–0. Expected goals were close to even (UTA 3.7, TBL 3.5), so the finishing and the goaltending decided it. The biggest swing: Darren Raddysh scored on the power play at 17:38 of the second, moving TBL’s win probability from 53% to 76%. Andrei Vasilevskiy saved 3.6 goals above 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.
