The Jets and Avalanche delivered an instant classic Sunday, with Winnipeg defeating Colorado 7-6 in front of a raucous home crowd to take a 1-0 series lead. Below, we break down some of the craziest numbers and anecdotes from the game.

1 - The Jets only scored seven or more goals once during the regular season. Coincidentally, it came the last time they played the Avalanche, eight days ago.

3 - Adam Lowry's shot bounced off the posts three times - yet still narrowly crossed the goal line for the captain's second goal of the night.

-4.64 - The goals saved above expected by Alexandar Georgiev, per Evolving-Hockey. The Avalanche netminder was on the hook for all seven. Usual No. 2 goalie Justus Annunen was out sick, so Arvid Holm, a former Jets draft pick with zero NHL experience, served as the backup.

.785 - Georgiev's save percentage in three games against the Jets this season, including the playoffs. It was .696 in this particular contest.

23 - The shot differential in favor of the Avalanche, even though Colorado lost the game. The Avs also controlled 65% of the shot attempts and 64% of the expected goals.

74.1 - The percentage of times the Avalanche win this game after 1000 simulations, per MoneyPuck's Deserve To Win O'Meter.

5 - The most goals Connor Hellebuyck, the Vezina Trophy favorite, allowed in a game during the regular season. He did so on four occasions, and the Jets lost each time.

98 - The number of games between Hellebuyck's last time allowing six goals in a contest, including playoffs. It last happened when the Jets lost 7-5 to the Detroit Red Wings on Jan. 10, 2023.

1985 - The year the last time there was a 7-6 Stanley Cup Playoff game that ended in regulation. The Boston Bruins beat the Montreal Canadiens in Game 4 of the Adams Division semifinal.

1.000 - The winning percentage of home teams in the 2024 Stanley Cup Playoffs through the first six games.

0 - The NFL's New York Jets have scored seven points in a playoff game zero times in the last 13 years. The Winnipeg Jets have now done so twice in that span.

3 - The CFL's Winnipeg Blue Bombers held their opponents to under seven points three times in 2023.

New York Rangers forward Matt Rempe made his presence felt in his playoff debut as much as a fourth-liner can.

The rookie enforcer scored a goal, posted a plus-2 rating, and was engaged physically with three hits in the Rangers' 4-1 victory in Game 1 over the Washington Capitals.

"I think I'm built for the playoffs," Rempe told The New York Post's Mollie Walker postgame.

Rempe added that his mom was at Madison Square Garden for the first time to watch him play. The 21-year-old was asked if her presence gave him extra juice for the game.

"I've always got juice," Rempe said with a big grin.

Rempe, who stands at a towering 6-foot-7, 241 pounds, recorded just one goal and one assist in 17 contests during the regular season but gained popularity for his willingness to fight. He almost spent as much time in the box as he did on the ice, averaging 5:38 of ice time per game and 4.18 penalty minutes per game.

"I can't think of a player that's come in and had that impact on a team, on a fanbase, on a city," head coach Peter Laviolette said postgame.

The fourth line in general was a major factor in New York's victory. Jimmy Vesey registered a goal and an assist, and Barclay Goodrow added a pair of helpers.

Vesey was highly complimentary of Rempe postgame.

"Any game he's in the lineup, he's had an effect," Vesey said.
