Game Previews
Dallas Stars vs Toronto Maple Leafs
The defensively strong Dallas Stars face the scoring power in Auston Matthews and the Toronto Maple Leafs and are favored based on our win probabilities. 32% of the 22 goals the Leafs have scored this season have been on the powerplay (8th in the league), and at a similar rate, Auston Matthews has scored 3 of his 7 total goals on the advantage. But the Stars still have yet to allow a powerplay goal. In fact, they’ve take the 3rd fewest penalties in the league (20). Since they maintain a pretty solid +5 goal differential (6th in the league), they can capitalize if they stay out of the box.
Carolina Hurricanes vs Seattle Kraken
The Hurricanes (3-4-0) and Kraken (2-4-1) have both been off to subpar starts this season. It’s not from a lack of scoring from the Hurricanes as they are 3rd in Goals, 1st in SOG and 1st in Shot Attempts. But because they take so many shot attempts (498), they are 2nd in the league in Percent of Shots Not on Goal (53%). While this may not be a huge factor, it may be leading to chances going the other way. For Seattle, the team will need to rely on stars to get scoring. As mentioned, in previous reports, the Hurricanes allow a lot of goals, and the production Bjorkstrand (4 points), Schwartz (4 points) and Eberle (3 points) need to break higher points per game to catch some momentum.
