Part of it with the Jets/Blues series was that whoever was at home generally had the majority of possession, so the other team had lots of time without the puck to throw hits. But also the Blues set the tone for the series early.
The Panthers has the most hits/60 of any team: 43.4. Dallas has the fewest with 28.15.
Hitting looks to be way down from last season's playoffs (FLA-TBL led the way 107.53 hits/60 in 5 games last year, BOS-TOR: 96.29, EDM-LAK: 84.8. WPG-STL would be 4th on last year's list).
