Toronto Maple Leafs vs Detroit Red Wings Game Analysis — Saturday, December 14, 2024
By Hockey in 60
Detroit Red Wings paired the victory with a 26–25 advantage in shots on goal, accounting for 51.0% of the two teams’ combined shots. That gives the result support beyond the scoreline: the winning side also put more attempts on target. Shot totals alone do not show the quality of those chances or how the balance changed while either team was protecting a lead.
Toronto Maple Leafs converted 1 of 2 power plays (50.0%); Detroit Red Wings converted 0 of 3 power plays (0.0%). Detroit Red Wings 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.
