Utah Mammoth vs Montreal Canadiens Game Analysis — Tuesday, November 26, 2024

By Hockey in 60

Utah Mammoth paired the victory with a 29–13 advantage in shots on goal, accounting for 69.0% of the two teams’ combined shots. It recorded 2.2 times as many shots on target, a substantial volume advantage alongside the win. Shot totals alone do not show the quality of those chances or how the balance changed while either team was protecting a lead.

Utah Mammoth converted 0 of 4 power plays (0.0%); Montreal Canadiens converted 0 of 3 power plays (0.0%). Neither team added a power-play goal, so neither gained a scoring edge from converting its man advantages.

Montreal Canadiens won 57.8% of faceoffs yet was outshot 29–13. The faceoff advantage was not accompanied by a shot-volume advantage in the full-game totals. Winning a draw can provide an initial chance to control the puck, but it does not establish sustained possession or attacking pressure; zone entries, puck recovery and chance-quality data would be needed to explain the disconnect.
