Philadelphia Flyers vs Vegas Golden Knights Game Analysis — Thursday, January 2, 2025
By Hockey in 60
Vegas Golden Knights paired the victory with a 27–25 advantage in shots on goal, accounting for 51.9% 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.
Philadelphia Flyers converted 1 of 2 power plays (50.0%); Vegas Golden Knights converted 0 of 1 power plays (0.0%). Vegas Golden Knights 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.
Vegas Golden Knights won 57.4% 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.
