By Hockey in 60
Carolina Hurricanes won despite being outshot 32–29. New York Islanders generated more shots on target, but the volume advantage did not translate into a better result. Carolina Hurricanes scored on 13.8% of its shots, compared with 0.0% for New York Islanders. 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.
New York Islanders converted 0 of 1 power plays (0.0%); Carolina Hurricanes converted 1 of 2 power plays (50.0%). The 1-goal net power-play edge accounted for part of the 4-goal final margin. This identifies special teams as a meaningful scoring difference, without proving how the game would have unfolded with different penalties.
