Vegas Golden Knights vs Ottawa Senators Game Analysis — Thursday, November 21, 2024
By Hockey in 60
Vegas Golden Knights won despite being outshot 40–32. Ottawa Senators generated more shots on target, but the volume advantage did not translate into a better result. Vegas Golden Knights scored on 9.4% of its shots, compared with 5.0% for Ottawa Senators. 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 2 power plays (0.0%); Ottawa Senators converted 1 of 3 power plays (33.3%). Vegas Golden Knights overcame a 1-goal disadvantage in power-play scoring, so its winning edge came from goals recorded outside the power play. Those goals can include even-strength, shorthanded and empty-net situations.
Ottawa Senators won 56.5% of faceoffs. That is a clear edge in restarts, but faceoff percentage should not be treated as a possession percentage: the totals do not show where the draws occurred or what happened immediately afterwards.
