Numbers for Nerds

This game features a pretty neat match-up between the Anaheim Ducks and the New York Islanders. Obviously the sample size of games is really really small (just two), but in terms of what we've seen so far, both teams are still struggling to make the new season's rosters work. Both teams are 0-2, both teams are equal in GA and GF. Perhaps the Islanders' special teams looks a bit better on paper, but the sample size is limited. Should be interesting to see which team will top the other.
