History shows it’s very beneficial to be leading the series in the Stanley Cup Final

“Teams that win more are more likely to win”
2-0 lead wins 90% of the time
Thanks for my daily gut punch
What’s the stats for Leading and Losing 4-0/0-4?
Since the lockout, the 2020 stars, 2019 Bruins, 2018 Golden Knights, 2011 Canucks, and 2009 Red Wings are the only teams to win game 1 of the series and lose the finals. The 2011 Canucks and 2009 red wings are also the only 2 teams since the 1971 Blackhawks to win the first 2 games and lose the series
The Oilers have already defied statistical trends in a big way earlier this season, rebounding from their 2-9–1 start to make the cup final. So, anything is possible!
What about the records when a team is leading with 4 wins?
Who was the single team that lost while 3-0?
Teams that lead 4-anything win 100% of the time
“Winning games is better than losing games”
Is the second slide really necessary?
History can eat my shorts
Mind blowing. And I thought I would never use high school math in real life.
“It’s advantageous to be winning”
Big if true
Now do one for losing 3-0 in game 1
Winning game leads to winning the Stanley Cup.
More at 8.
So you’re saying it’s beneficial to win? Interesting. I need more data to be sure.
I cant wrap my brain around how its better to trail 3-0 then 3-1.
Nm, both only had 1 win but there have been more 3-1’s which brings % down.
This is the most noise I have heard after a team goes up 1-0 in a series all playoffs. Oilers are not dead lmao.

Breaking news: Teams that win more games than other teams end up winning more championships. More at 11.
No shit
Unless a team goes down 2-0 a series doesn’t get going until game 3.
I never would have guessed
This is why circle jerk subs exist
we ran the numbers, winning is good
cries in Canuck
Only five wins after being down 0-2, you say…
Thank you for showing the trailing graphic, without it everyone would be forced to use their brain to just flip the record…
Edmonton is also the only team to win a series when neither team wins game 4 (and it was played) so Florida better have a game plan for that
I feel like you could have left off the second chart since it’s literally just the first one inverted.
I’ve seen other slides showing it’s beneficial to score more goals per game than the competition. Cannot confirm at this time.
