6 – 3Final

SEA beat DET 6–3. On shot quality it was a coin flip (SEA 3.5, DET 3.7 in expected goals); the finishing and the goaltending decided it. The biggest swing: Mackie Samoskevich scored at 6:59 of the second, taking SEA’s win probability from 47% to 67%. A tough night in net for John Gibson: he allowed 3.3 goals more than expected.

One game is a tiny sample: a single goal against on a player’s shift or a lucky finish moves his net goals a lot, so don’t trade anyone over a rough night. See the card guide and Net Goals 101 for how they’re built.
