Oilers fell to the Kings
Chances were even (1.8 to 2.2 expected goals); the Oilers lost 1–3. An empty-net goal padded the final score; it was a one-goal game until then.
Who had the better chances
Expected goals (xG) score every shot by how often shots like it go in: distance, angle, type, rebound, rush. Adding them up shows who created the better chances, whatever the scoreboard says.
Chances were close: 1.8 expected goals to 2.2, on 23 and 32 shots on goal.
