Joel Eriksson Ek has a goal and an assist, and Minnesota leads Seattle 4-1 after 40:00 of game time played, with 20:00 left in the 3rd.
The chances behind that line are what stand out. His shots were worth 0.79 expected goals, which means his chances alone should have produced almost one goal. He has 2 shots on goal in 11:24 of ice time, set up Kirill Kaprizov's opener, and scored the fourth goal himself.
