Score away–home after each goal; season totals in parentheses.
Expected goals (xG) rate every unblocked shot by how often shots like it go in, from where it was taken, the shot type, the strength and what happened just before it. How it works
| DET | ANA | |
|---|---|---|
| 3.48 | Expected goals | 3.84 |
| 2 | Goals (no shootout) | 5 |
| 1.30 | Expected goals, 5 on 5 | 1.79 |
| 62 | Shot attempts | 57 |
| 49 | Unblocked attempts | 45 |
| 30 | Shots on goal | 32 |
What stood out as the game went on, from the play-by-play and the shifts. Time on the bench is counted in 5-on-5 play outside the penalty box; the note says the player sat, not why. Goals saved are against the shots' expected goals (xG).
| 2nd Period | |||
|---|---|---|---|
| 12:14 | ANA | Deserve to win | Deserve to win · ANA takes the lead, 61–39%
DET had led since 4:36 of the 1st, by as much as 63% |
| 3rd Period | |||
| 17:15 | DET | Pulled goalie | Pulled goalie · Pulled Gibson, down 4–2
With 2:45 left; ANA scored at 17:28 of the 3rd (2–5) |
xG comes from hockeystats.io's own model, a gradient-boosted tree model trained on every unblocked shot from the 2021-22 to 2025-26 regular seasons using the NHL's public play-by-play. Each shot's value is the share of similar shots that became goals. A team's xG is the sum over its shots; "deserve to win" asks how often the team would outscore its opponent if every shot went in at exactly that rate. Blocked shots count as attempts but have no xG (the NHL records where they were blocked, not where they were taken), so the map leaves them out.

An expected-goals take on Dom Luszczyszyn's Game Score: goals and assists, the quality of a player's own shots, shot quality for and against while they were on the ice at 5v5, penalties, faceoffs and puck plays, all in goals; goalies by goals saved above expected. From the NHL play-by-play and shift charts.
