Brandon Hagel's night was earned, not lucky. He fired 5 shots, scored 2 goals and added 1 assist, and his chances were worth 0.60 expected goals (how many goals shots like his should produce). Only Pontus Holmberg's chances were worth more. Anthony Cirelli assisted on both goals, and Nikita Kucherov set up the second in the 8-3 win.
