How many will we get this year?
No shade LAK fans, it was a great series. Now I just also remember literally falling to my knees when it happened after standing up the entire OT.
The OP is a mean person.
That will go down as one of the all time great playoff series everDamn you for bringing that WCF 2014 Game 7 OT goal back into my life.

I've never been accused of having a life so I went through the video and Ottawa wasn't too bad. They've won 3 of 7 games decided by at OT goal. As expected, most teams are within 1 game of .500 as there really shouldn't be a reason why a team clinches a series in overtime as opposed to any OT goal.
In fact, the team with the worst record is Hartford. (Poor Mike Liut) They lost all 5 series before they moved to Carolina. But amazingly, the team with the BEST record is Carolina. They are 7-0 in these type of series.
Calgary 15 series decided on an OT goal
Washington 15
Vancouver 14
Chicago 14
Pittsburgh 14
Dallas 14 (That's just Dallas, no Minnesota included)
Only 2 players have decided 3 series, Patrick Kane and Martin Gelinas. A bunch have 2 of them, Bonino/Peter Stastny/Brunette/Tikkanen/Joe Murphy/Greg Adams/Russ Courtnall/Alec Martinez/Dale Hunter/Verhahge/Henrique/Burrows
But I think the fact that Barclay Goodrow has been on the winning side of five series winning OT goals in just 13 series is rather amazing:
San Jose
2019-GWG in game 7 vs Colorado
Tampa
2020-assist on GWG vs Columbus
on bench for GWG vs Boston
assist on GWG vs Islanders
Rangers
2022
on bench for GWG vs Pittsburgh
Dude has had a ton of great celebrations.
due to it being for game 4 in a sweep I couldn't put it over any game 7 OT winners but that is an epic all time callBrad May against Boston has to be the best of these.
