Low-Scoring Game On the Cards?

Florida Panthers (47-31-4, 20-19-2 Away) square off against Toronto Maple Leafs (52-26-4, 27-13-1 at Home) in game 2 of this Stanley Cup Playoffs Eastern Conference second round matchup at Scotiabank Arena. The Leafs lead the series 1-0.

The Panthers and the Maple Leafs might not light the lamp on too many occasions and that leads us to backing the -104 that there are Under 5.5 goals.

Metrics such as Corsi, Fenwick, Expected Goals (xG) and PDO are used to evaluate puck possession, shot quality, goaltending performance and special teams efficiency beyond the traditional box score.
