Was poking around and this stood out to me:
NJ stomped on NYR really, really hard and Sheshterkin kept that series from being a face-peeling blowout.
Carolina should have also generated more goals. Sorokin is also a very good goalie.
These are two strong-ass offenses. NJ is ranked 2nd in the playoffs in xG/60, Carolina is 3rd. They are separated by .01 (2.89 vs 2.88). If Schmid keeps his party going, that's probably the entire difference in the series there
Edmonton currently expects 3.23, they're on another planet after one measly round.
I'm unsure how to adjust for defensive performances given who each team faced. The Islanders are sad and the Rangers were extra mega-sad.
