Utah has forced Columbus to defend the whole way, and it shows: at 12:53 played in the 1st Utah leads after the opening goal (11:55 — Mikhail Sergachev, 5v4). Shot attempts sit 20-7, shots on goal 8-2, and the chances were worth xG 0.52–0.16. Columbus needs cleaner exits and quick stretch passes to break the wall.
