New Jersey Devils vs St. Louis Blues Game Analysis — Tuesday, December 17, 2024

By Hockey in 60

New Jersey Devils paired the victory with a 28–20 advantage in shots on goal, accounting for 58.3% 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.

New Jersey Devils converted 1 of 3 power plays (33.3%); St. Louis Blues converted 0 of 1 power plays (0.0%). The 1-goal net power-play edge accounted for part of the 3-goal final margin. This identifies special teams as a meaningful scoring difference, without proving how the game would have unfolded with different penalties.

New Jersey Devils won 61.5% 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.
