They have had 7 games where they outshoot an opponent by 13 or more over the last 2 years and lose in regulation. I’m too lazy to look up the rest of the league. Is that a lot? Probably, but the Canes outshoot the opponent 80% of the time so they are way more likely to have games like this. Also because they spend less than $6 million on goaltending while good starters are getting $8.5 mil themselves. This is going to happen sometimes.
OTH, we wouldn’t get that many shots (Roster would suffer) if we paid big bucks for goaltending.They have had 7 games where they outshoot an opponent by 13 or more over the last 2 years and lose in regulation.

Oh exactly - it’s planned for. There will be frustrating losses. But barring crazy bad luck, you win more than you lose.OTH, we wouldn’t get that many shots (Roster would suffer) if we paid big bucks for goaltending.
Frustrating loss
I think there are probably a bunch where they dominate early and then it becomes closer by the end because I understand the feeling.Just 7 in 2 years? I feel like every loss is them out-shooting the opposition by a ridiculous margin. I'm probably overreacting buy, damn it's annoying.
Onto the next one.
