The NHL version of the bubble burst angle, which wins in every sport (holds up regular and postseason) is +146.3 units and 11.5 ROI. The postseason ROI is slightly higher at 12.6. Because the Bubble Burst angle wins in each sport, we weigh it heavier than the pure numbers would dictate.

It overlaps with a regression to the mean angle and when they overlap the angle is +14.6 ROI, including a jaw-dropping 22.9 in playoffs.
