Dallas Stars vs Chicago Blackhawks Game Analysis — Sunday, December 29, 2024
By Hockey in 60
Dallas Stars paired the victory with a 35–25 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.
Dallas Stars converted 1 of 7 power plays (14.3%); Chicago Blackhawks converted 1 of 4 power plays (25.0%). Power-play goal totals were level, so the difference in the final score came from other scoring situations.
Dallas Stars won 58.5% 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.
