DiPietro Has Nashville Chasing a Goal That Won't Come
Boston's Michael DiPietro keeps the Predators off the board while Pastrnak and McAvoy pile up assists in the barn.
Written during the game · 12:01 AM ET. Final was NSH 0, BOS 6.
Michael DiPietro has not let a single puck past him tonight. He has 25 saves on 25 shots, and the Boston Bruins lead NSH 0, BOS 5 with 10:40 played in the 3rd, 9:20 left in the 3rd.
The saves that stand out are the best looks. Nashville has created 20 high-danger chances overall, and DiPietro has stopped all 9 high-danger shots that reached him. Those are the shots a fan rises out of the seat for.
He has also been busy, not idle. The Predators lead the shot attempts 53-43, so Boston's lead is not the product of a quiet night in net. Nashville's chances were worth about 2.68 expected goals, meaning how many goals an average goalie would give up on those shots. DiPietro has allowed none, a gap of that full amount in his favour.
Nils Hoglander has four shots on goal and Jonathan Marchessault three, and neither has solved him. At the other end, Justus Annunen has allowed five on 23 shots.
