Les chevaliers sont les moins susceptibles d’avancer au tour 3 par Moneypuck. J’espère que nous pourrons leur prouver qu’ils se trompent beaucoup.

Spend almost the entire season at the top of the division and finish top in the west yet still rated worse it’s comical
Well this may be good news for us based on moneypucks success rate in round 1…
It’s just Edmonton’s 9-1 season close out plus a 50+ percent power play skewing the moneypuck numbers. No one with eyes thinks this is a sure thing for EDM. Time to go out tomorrow night and prove moneypuck wrong. GKG
YOU LOVE TO SEE IT!
LETS GOOOOO!
I do admire their consistency in wrongness
does moneypuck know connor mcdavid is never gonna fuck them
Kings shit the bed hard against the Oilers in their series. They offered no resistance against their PP and they took dumb penalties. We are better than the Oilers 5×5 all day long, even with Mcdrai out on the ice. Our special teams suck so let’s just not use them
Aren’t these just the betting odds that people put in? Doesn’t Edmonton have a huge gambling population? I think it skews more towards betting than it does with any actual statistics.
Ready to start the series and show what we can do, we miss the playoffs once and are right back to being the underdogs but that’s for the best. Oilers are gonna be a challenge, but I legit think the winner of this series takes the cup.
embrace the role of the anti-analytics team. quit stressing about this. we’ll never look good to analytic models because we’re the only team in the league that allows opposing teams to control puck possession. it’s part of the system. we want them to beat against us until they make a puck handling mistake or a bad change.
Im ok with money puck and the rest of the league treating the knights as the underdogs. Better in my opinion that we fly under the radar
Moneypuck’s 2nd Round Predictions: https://i.redd.it/nbj9v5doi3ua1.png
6 out of 8 correct. WPG/VGK was pretty much 50/50 but wasn’t close at all (4-1).
Money puck is so fucking garbage anymore.
Love being the underdog let’s go!!!
Based on every analytic except wins, we shouldn’t advance. Also we lost 3/4 and only won in OT against EDM. That being said, our depth kills theirs at the forward position, and our D is in full force, and IMO the best in the league if McNabb is ok. I know we have a solid chance to go all the way if we can stay out of the box.
You should sleep well at night knowing this means nothing.
Is this bulletin board material so we can continue the Misfit mentality?
Money puck is garbage, and I hope they include this comment in their inevitable tweet
It’s just a statistical model based on advanced analytics, not some odds makers. And it was extremely wrong in round 1, so, it’s not worth getting up in arms about.
I think its analytics doesn’t know what to make of our team because of how many guys were in and out of the lineup, and how we’re mostly healthy now.
It used to annoy me when Cassidy and the boys would say « Good teams just find a way to win ». It seems like such a cop out statement. No shit, sherlock?
But I’ve come to realize that that’s exactly the game Vegas plays. We just find ways to win. We may not thoroughly dominate or just wipe the board with people, but at the end of the night….we stack up Ws better than any other team in the west. Unfortunately for data nerds, it’s hard to quantify that and so we’re left with this: Data that just doesn’t capture reality that well.
I don’t think we’ll sweep EDM. Hell, I think of the possible futures ahead of us, it’s the series that has the best chance of going to 7. But I don’t see a team up there that I think we’d be unable to beat.
