“Easiest Win” – Chicago/Ottawa easily goes under as an empty net goal made the final score 2-0.
“Luckiest win”/Most painful loss – Too many to choose from! I have to go with the St. Louis/Anahiem game. Nothing drives under bettors crazier than a 2-1 or 1-1 3rd period where the game is tied at 2 late, 3-2 even later, and an empty net goal with seconds left puts the game over the total.
