Matt’s Analysis:
I was sitting here wondering if the books had the stones to post a 7.5 total for a Stanley Cup playoff game. Question answered (have never seen an 8 in my life, FYI, if wondering). Can’t tell you how rare that is. Again, I am prepared to lose and the Ducks nearly topped this themselves in Game 3. But it’s an absolute must-play something per the math. We win on a 3-3 regulation draw in the postseason? 100 percent have to and when the final score is 6-5, I just say good job dudes. But I’m still “Beautiful Mind” right.
