Money Puck a actuellement les Canes avec environ 2% de chances plus élevées de remporter la coupe. Vous savez, l’équipe que nous avons balayée l’année dernière. L’équipe qui a 2 points de retard sur nous au classement alors qu’on a un match en moins. Vous connaissez l’équipe que nous avons déjà battue une fois cette saison. Vous savez, cette équipe. J’ai trouvé cela intéressant et j’ai pensé le partager avec la classe.

Money puck is probably counting strength of schedule, but those numbers mean fuck all.
Not that odd. What happened in the ECF last year and what the standings are right now don’t factor in. That’s what pundits would use.
Run 1,000 simulations per game of the finals, based on the likelihood of play outcomes based on advanced stats, against the likely opponents from the west, all regressed to the league mean because of how far out the finals are, and you get a vague guess of the cup winner.
It’s an interesting view of how the advanced stats line up. Don’t take as anything more than that.
Oh brother. We’ll live
No calculations can factor in that Panthers gonna Panther 🤷🏻♂️
I think it’s bc of depth at defense? Maybe? Their goaltending sitch kinda sucks tho
It’s because if they make it into the playoffs they might have an easier time to the cup
It’s not calculating head to head but rather a path to the finals. Theirs is probably easier in their division. Or anyway that’s what I’ll tell myself.
Why are you even taking this stuff seriously lol
In addition to what everybody else is saying, I know that the Carolina style of offense heavily pads their predictive stats. They take tons of shots while suppressing the opponent’s passing lanes BUT their shots are often low quality (in a way that may not be fully captured by “expected goals”) plus their goaltending is terrible and this may some how not account for that.
