Not sure if NST is glitching out but Toronto only has 0.01 expected goals for the period. 6-0 high danger chances for the Lightning, who just went up 2-0.

About as dominant a period as you can have at 5x5:

Attempts 25-6
Shots 10-2
Scoring chances 15-2
High Danger chances 6-0
Expected goals 93% Tampa

Toronto squeaked one HDC in before the horn. Up to a thrilling 24.2% xGF now!

Schmid is kinda intimidating, ngl. He had great analytics in the regular season—small sample (18 games), but his 0.546 goals saved above expected per 60 was 7th out of goalies who played at least 10 games.

That play up the boards just now where blatant interference was allowed to stop a guy from getting a potential breakaway is why I hate “playoff reffing”.

Cause at some point later on, someone might accidentally get a stick too high and the ref will call it cause he has to. Yet something that stopped a possible breakaway on a goalie was not allowed to develop cause whistle swallowed.

I don't know if it's a function of a lack of depth, regression by key players, the odometer on said players spinning like in cartoons, or a combination of all three, but this is a game that Tampa of years past just squeezes the life from. Even if they survive to win this in OT or otherwise win this series, they're not going any further.

Which is why I'm pulling for them
