Sabres v. Hurricanes - Scoring Chances
Late last season we started tracking scoring chances and it was met with approval from most of the die hard DBTBers. As promised, it is back this season. We were unable to track chances last weekend do to some technical difficulties but this weekends games were available.
The Sabres first loss of the season was a difficult game to get a grasp on. When watching the game I thought they played very well at times and they looked lost at other times. The scoring chances prove that I was right, I just didbn't realize how right I was.
The Sabres dominated this game when the teams were at even strength but they struggled mightily when they had the power play. There is no way a team should lose a hockey game when they hold a team to three even strength chances and two power play chances, but that is exactly what happened to the Sabres.
Take a look at these numbers after the jump...
