NHL Hot Offenses: Toronto Maple Leafs Are Pouring It On
Published
This one is team-level by necessity, and honestly the scoreboard tells the story fine. The last seven days of NHL finals, ranked by goals per game.
Setting the pace
Toronto Maple Leafs top the table with 10 goals in two games, 5.0 per game, with 3 going the other way.
Right behind them: Carolina Hurricanes, averaging 4.5 goals themselves.
Nor is it a two-team story, San Jose Sharks are averaging 4.2 themselves.
The other end
Minnesota Wild have been the quietest of the bunch: 1.3 goals a game in their last 3.
That is a 3.7-goals-per-game spread between the two ends of the table, and margins like that are exactly where weekly form shows up.

Here is how the top of the scoring board stacks up:
| Team | Games | Goals | Per game |
|---|---|---|---|
| Toronto Maple Leafs | 2 | 10 | 5.0 |
| Carolina Hurricanes | 4 | 18 | 4.5 |
| San Jose Sharks | 4 | 17 | 4.2 |
