◆ By the ModelOct 3, 10:21 PMxG: xgboost-0.765Edited for clarityDrafted from NHL play-by-play by Backcheck's model, worded for clarity by an AI editor that may not change a number. Nobody at Backcheck was at the rink. How this works

I. Sorokin was untouchable. The Islanders' rush game was lethal — B. Horvat, V. Eklund, O. Palat, and C. Cizikas each scored in transition while New Jersey's defense leaked opportunities every period. S. Holmstrom and B. Schenn added goals, with Cizikas capping it shorthanded.

Expected goals split 4.63–4.06 in the Islanders' favor, masking the final score's margin. Sorokin saved 4.06 above his workload on 37 saves; the Devils' N. Daws gave up 1.4 more than expected and allowed 0 of 6 high-danger chances to count.

The Islanders scored six: Holmstrom at 03:32 of the second, Schenn on a rebound at 05:00, Horvat on the power play at 12:08, Eklund at 11:32 of the third, Palat at 12:14, and Cizikas shorthanded at 18:41 on a 40% chance. The Islanders held 46% of shot attempts. M. Schaefer led with 2 assists in 20:34.

The goals

NYI 0–1, 03:32 of the second. S. Holmstrom, wrist shot from 9 feet, a 17% chance by the model (off the rush), past N. Daws. Assists: J. Pageau, A. Pelech. Win probability moved 19 points.
NYI 0–2, 05:00 of the second. B. Schenn, snap shot from 7 feet, a 20% chance by the model (a rebound), past N. Daws. Assists: V. Eklund, M. Schaefer. 2 seconds after a NYI missed shot by V. Eklund. Win probability moved 13 points.
NYI 0–3, 12:08 of the second on the power play. B. Horvat, wrist shot from 14 feet, an 11% chance by the model (off the rush), past N. Daws. Assists: M. Schaefer. 5 seconds after a NYI takeaway by M. Schaefer. Win probability moved 7 points.
NYI 0–4, 11:32 of the third. V. Eklund, wrist shot from 15 feet, a 19% chance by the model (off the rush), past N. Daws. Assists: C. Ritchie, B. Schenn.
NYI 0–5, 12:14 of the third. O. Palat, snap shot from 12 feet, a 22% chance by the model (off the rush), past N. Daws. Assists: C. Cizikas, L. Stanley.
NYI 0–6, 18:41 of the third shorthanded. C. Cizikas, wrist shot from 5 feet, a 41% chance by the model (a rebound), past N. Daws. Assists: S. Holmstrom. 1 second after a NYI shot by C. Cizikas.

What the numbers can't tell you. Whether the finishing was luck or skill, why the benches were run the way they were, who was hurt, and anything said in the room. That is the beat's story, and it is worth reading.

New to these numbers?

Two things happened in this game: who created the better chances, and who put the puck in the net. They are not the same thing, and this page separates them on purpose.

The one to watch is expected goals— the best single read on who deserved to win. When it disagrees with the scoreboard, that disagreement is usually the story. Nothing here is a projection; every figure is computed from this game's play-by-play. Full glossary →

xG: Expected goals. Every shot scored by how often that exact look goes in. 2.5 xG means the chances were worth about two and a half goals.
HD: High-danger chances — shots from the slot and the crease, where shots actually become goals.
Corsi: Every shot attempt, including the ones that missed or got blocked. A rough read on who had the puck.
Adj.: Score-adjusted. Teams that trail shoot more and teams that lead sit back, so this corrects the attempt count for the scoreboard.
GSAx: Goals saved above expected. A positive number means the goalie stopped more than an average goalie would have on those shots.
PDO: Shooting % plus save % — a luck gauge. It sits near 1.000 over a season, so a game far from it usually means the bounces decided it.

The read

Edited for clarity

◆ By the ModelOct 3, 9:06 AMEdited for clarityDrafted from NHL play-by-play by Backcheck's model, worded for clarity by an AI editor that may not change a number. Nobody at Backcheck was at the rink. How this works

The model gives New Jersey a 3.3-to-3.2 projected edge and a 52% win probability—which is to say, almost no edge at all. This is a pure coin-flip game.

The Devils have built that advantage entirely on underlying play. They generate 72.4% of expected goals, dominating the chance battle. They drive territorial possession at 67.3% in shot attempts, smothering the Islanders. But the margin is thin because New York's underlying metrics suggest a team due for positive regression. The Islanders are running cold on both save percentage and shooting percentage—the kind of luck that typically swings back positive.

Goaltending breaks no ties. J. Allen's 92.0% save percentage is 0.2 below expected, while I. Sorokin's 92.3% is 0.8 above—a negligible difference.

Slot scoring is where the Devils separate. New Jersey converts 14% of slot chances while New York converts 9%—a differential that decides one-goal games.
