I have this series pegged as one that is determined by goaltending alone. Both teams have amazing systems at evens, but holy ****, has Jones been bad this year. Without Fleury, it would be very even. Probably giving SJ the edge due to Jones' history, though. A very slight edge
Yeah, but let's remember than San Jose also puts up crazy xG for. With that much going for your offense, you can get away with the bad defense as well.San Jose doesn’t necessarily have an amazing system. Over the past 3 seasons of 5-on-5 play, no goaltender faces a higher percentage of high danger shots per shot faced and only Cam Talbot has a lower xSV% per Corsica’s model. They limit quantity and give up quality.
Granted, Jones has also been absolutely terrible and thoroughly underperformed his expected save percentage, as well as any reasonable save percentage that we can expect from looking at a regression line based on percentage of high danger shots allowed. But he and the system are a match made in hell.
