Six net front chances.

That was it.

Batherson had one goal.

When I looked at Anderson's goal saved above expected, it was a plus six.

He was a minus five in the regular season, and he ranked 80th.

So he was outstanding.

His save percentage in the regular season, if you didn't know, was 874.

Now, here's what I thought was interesting on the breakaway side.

Ottawa...

should have known before the series began that Anderson's weak spot was the breakaway goal.

Now, he had 20 breakaways over the regular season, goals against, but only two of them were off dekes.

Ottawa had five breakaways in the series.

Four of them, they attempted to deke him.

So they went right into his strong point, and specifically they tried to deke five-hole.

He had only been beaten twice off a deke during the regular season, five-hole, all season long, and it was against the Pittsburgh Penguins twice in the same game.

So it's really his strong suit.

That's where I felt like Ottawa missed the mark in the series.

Their pre-scout on Anderson could have been a lot stronger.

Carolina, yeah, last thing on this, Carolina's 146 breakaways against.

I said they were 32nd, 146 breakaways against.
