Chance Quality Result
Based on the quality of chances each team created, Anaheim Ducks won 68% of G&W replays (Philadelphia Flyers 32%). The result went to the side that created the better chances.
The Chance Quality Result describes the chances each team created. It is not the official result and never changes it or any record. Expected goals count regulation chances with both goalies in net; empty-net goals are not included. Season xG tables count every game state, empty nets included, so their totals differ.
