The Wild earned it — the game and the expected-goals battle both.

BOS 1 · MIN 4
◆ By the ModelOct 3, 10:52 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

Minnesota beat Boston 4-1. J. Wallstedt stole the game and the Bruins' offense failed to capitalize, turning what should have been competitive into a rout.

The numbers tell that story precisely. Boston generated 3.00 expected goals and scored once, falling two goals short of what their workload should have produced. Wallstedt saved 2.00 more goals than his workload suggested, his performance alone accounting for the margin's size. The Wild held 53% of shot attempts (30-27). Minnesota led 59% of expected goals at 5v5 (4.33–3.00). Minnesota also dominated the dangerous-chance battle, 9-4.

K. Kaprizov opened the scoring on the power play at 6:11 of the second with a snap shot from 10 feet (a 20% chance off the rush). Q. Hughes extended the lead at 12:28, also on the advantage, with a wrist shot from 40 feet (6% model probability). J. Spurgeon made it 3-1 in the third from 47 feet, another low-percentage chance that beat the model. Kaprizov closed it into the empty net.

M. DiPietro saved 1.33 more goals than his workload suggested and kept the Bruins competitive through two periods despite being outshot in quality. T. Jeannot's rush goal tied it early, but Minnesota pulled away through relentless transition play — 25 rush shots worth 2.55 expected goals, two finding the net. Boston's defensive gaps showed every period.

The goals

  • BOS 1–0, 01:53 of the first. T. Jeannot, wrist shot from 16 feet, an 11% chance by the model (off the rush), past J. Wallstedt. Assists: M. Kastelic, C. Clifton. Win probability moved 14 points.
  • MIN 1–1, 06:11 of the second on the power play. K. Kaprizov, snap shot from 10 feet, a 20% chance by the model (off the rush), past M. DiPietro. Assists: M. Shabanov, J. Eriksson Ek. Win probability moved 21 points.
  • MIN 1–2, 12:28 of the second on the power play. Q. Hughes, wrist shot from 40 feet, a 6% chance by the model, past M. DiPietro. Assists: B. Brink, R. Hartman. 6 seconds after a MIN faceoff win by R. Hartman. Win probability moved 22 points.
  • MIN 1–3, 03:24 of the third. J. Spurgeon, wrist shot from 47 feet, a 1% chance by the model (off the rush), past M. DiPietro. Assists: M. McCarron, Q. Hughes. Win probability moved 14 points.
  • MIN 1–4, 18:59 of the third into an empty net. K. Kaprizov, backhander from 68 feet, a 22% chance by the model. 3 seconds after a BOS giveaway by M. Lohrei.

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, 9:07 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

Minnesota is favored, but a pair of teams running hot on puck luck makes this closer than the model suggests. J. Swayman and his back-to-back fatigue will determine whether Boston can lean on regression in their favor.

The Wild's edge is real. Minnesota commands expected goals at 62.7% of the 5v5 play, leaving Boston at 49.1%. Minnesota also controls shot attempts at 59.0%, while Boston sits at 53.7%. That possession advantage is clean.

But puck luck could flip the script. The Bruins measure at a puck luck index of 1.043, well above the breakeven point, while Minnesota sits at 1.023 — both running hot. The model projects a Boston 3.0 to 3.5 goals game with Minnesota at 58% win probability, but whichever team reverts to expectation, reverts hard.

Goaltending is where that variance lives. J. Swayman has been sharper than his workload: 4.5 expected goals minus actual in two games with a 94.7% save percentage. But he's on no rest, the second night of a back-to-back, which clouds the advantage. J. Wallstedt hasn't played much — one game, 1.0 expected goals minus actual, 95.0% save percentage — but he will be fresh.

Both teams generate an outsized share of their scoring from the slot. Boston has scored 8 goals on 50 slot shots (16%), while Minnesota has 6 on 49 (12%). Whoever suppresses the other's point-blank chances will have the clearest path to the win.
