Underlying numbers don’t mean much when the overlying numbers end your run.
edit: I’m not trying to be cynical, I hope they do well.

You can’t win games playing a man short. As long as the wild keep taking penalties, the stars will win.

I read headlines like this and then we always end up losing.

Yeah, but Minnesota sports teams tho.

They have feasted on PP but struggled mightily in 5v5, but my god have we given them enough penalties to hang ourselves with.

5v5 analytics don’t matter when you have a 20% PP and 59% PK

Just confident that they just completely kicked our ass last game. They’ll be plenty confident.

Penalties. I don’t care about underlying stats. The stars have been scoring on the PP which despite what we think of the refs isn’t their fault. It’s the players. Like I get Folignos thinking there but that was just a heat seeking missile hit ASKING for scrutiny even tho he didn’t intend to injure him. Instead of pumping up the bench it instantly deflated and they never even sniffed consistent momentum after that. Stop. With. The. Penalties.

Gah. We’re all falling into the trap of a Stars writer who’s writing for clicks by making the headline sound good to both stars and wild fans. 😖

Underlying numbers? As far as I can see the stars PP% has a crazy conversion but at the same time we don’t seem to be able to do a thing about it.
Our PP is atrocious at the same time and I fail to see it getting better because it has let us down all season long.

If we could lock the rules for 5 on 5 for the entire series we’re set

Starting with Mike Yeo, our PP scheme has been pass pass pass pass pass, lose the puck. We just stand around doing nothing. The 4 guys on PK just need to stand there in a box/diamond and wait for the puck to land on their stick and clear it. It doesnt work, its never worked and it never will work! UBRELLA DOES NOT WORK!

TLDR: If the Wild can somehow stay out of the box, Dallas could be in serious trouble.
