It’s the high scoring Dallas Stars coming to town. They sit at fifth in the league for goals per game at 4.25 (one spot and 0.25 G/GP ahead of Ottawa, by the way). A big part of that is their power play, sitting at an absolutely absurd league-leading 54.5%. That’s obviously not going to last, but they’re coming by it as honestly as 6 goals in 11 power plays can be. They’re shooting at a rate of 158 attempts per 60 minutes on the PP, 115 of those actually on net. The team with the second highest rate of attempts is at 120 per 60 minutes, and that rate of shots on net laps what over half the teams in the league have managed so far.
