We've done what happens to the Bandits in the regular season when they take a lead. What about the playoffs? You'd think that the competition would be tougher, so the chances of blowing a lead or making a comeback might be smaller. Let's see how the numbers work.
Lead - Record
Three-goal lead - 23-3
Four-goal lead - 20-2
Five-goal lead - 14-1
Six-goal lead - 10-1
Seven-goal lead - 7-0
Eight-goal lead - 6-0
Nine-goal lead - 6-0
10-goal lead - 1-0
11-goal lead - 1-0
12-goal lead - 1-0
13-goal lead - 1-0
Now for the flip side:
Deficit - Record
Three-goal deficit - 3-10
Four-goal deficit - 1-5
Five-goal deficit - 0-5
Six-goal deficit - 0-2
Seven-goal deficit - 0-2
Let's narrow down the margins to those in the fourth quarter. If the Bandits were ahead by a certain number at any point of the period (including one second), it counts for these purposes. I've added two-goal stats here, because they can be significant in such a small time span.
Lead - Record
Two-goal lead - 15-4
Three-goal lead - 9-0
Four-goal lead - 10-0
Five-goal lead - 9-0
Six-goal lead - 6-0
Seven-goal lead - 6-0
Eight-goal lead - 6-0
Nine-goal lead - 6-0
10-goal lead - 1-0
11-goal lead - 1-0
12-goal lead - 1-0
13-goal lead - 1-0
The Bandits are close to money in the bank once they have a two-goal lead in the fourth quarter. Let's turn the numbers around, and it seems any deficit is difficult to ovecome:
Deficit - Record
Two-goal deficit - 1-9
Three-goal deficit - 1-5
Four-goal deficit - 1-3
Five-goal deficit - 0-4
Six-goal deficit - 0-2
Seven-goal deficit - 0-1
