Minnesota Wild vs San Jose Sharks Game Analysis — Saturday, January 11, 2025
By Hockey in 60
Minnesota Wild won despite being outshot 37–22. San Jose Sharks generated more shots on target, but the volume advantage did not translate into a better result. Minnesota Wild scored on 13.6% of its shots, compared with 2.7% for San Jose Sharks. 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.
Minnesota Wild had no power-play opportunities; San Jose Sharks converted 0 of 2 power plays (0.0%). Neither team added a power-play goal, so neither gained a scoring edge from converting its man advantages.
