Surprisingly, Seattle wasn't the luckiest team on the ice Tuesday. They slightly lost the expected-goal battle in an overtime winner, but one team covered a puckline in regulation getting slaughtered in it.

We're coming back on the puckline against them -- just like the loser of that one is to win Game 2 outright.

Florida Panthers at Toronto Maple Leafs

Maple Leafs -1.5 (+125)

I wasn't surprised that Florida won Game 1, but I was when we got the data on how they did it.

Toronto absolutely crushed the Panthers between the creases. Expected goals favored the Leafs by a tally of 4.46 to 2.27, which is the largest single-game gap of the playoffs thus far. It was the result of a continuing trend for the Maple Leafs that I don't expect to stick forever.

Ilya Samsonov posted 21.24 goals saved above expectation (GSAx) in the regular season, the ninth-best mark in the NHL. That towered over Florida's Sergei Bobrovsky (2.92 GSAx) in a larger sample. So far, though, Bobrovsky (2.87 GSAx) has crushed Samsonov (-1.48) in the playoffs.

The Leafs' netminder has hit a lull at the least-opportune time, but, frankly, Toronto skated circles around Florida on Tuesday. Expect a better effort from Samsonov tonight -- and a win if that pattern continues.
