Vegas Golden Knights vs Toronto Maple Leafs Game Analysis — Wednesday, November 20, 2024

By Hockey in 60

Toronto Maple Leafs scored on 11.5% of its shots, compared with 0.0% for Vegas Golden Knights. Those are team scoring rates, not goalie save percentages; empty-net goals can affect them. The totals establish a difference in conversion, but cannot separate finishing, chance quality and goaltending.

Vegas Golden Knights converted 0 of 3 power plays (0.0%); Toronto Maple Leafs converted 1 of 2 power plays (50.0%). The 1-goal net power-play edge accounted for part of the 3-goal final margin.
