Interesting! The stat I was looking at was ROW, to eliminate both extra points and shootout wins (because pretty much everyone hates the shootout) which puts four Eastern conference teams back into the top ten league wide. It seems to imply at least a little that western teams tend to have more close games? I haven't quite worked up a conclusion about it without checking individual scores for each game, but that would seem to track with ~conventional wisdom~ about the west favouring more defensive low-scoring games whereas thr east favours more offense-heavy play.
This is putting me in the mood to go on a super-nerdy stats-tracking spree, but my internet is limited right now :(
