Washington Capitals vs Nashville Predators Game Analysis — Saturday, January 11, 2025
By Hockey in 60
Washington Capitals won despite being outshot 33–16. Nashville Predators generated more shots on target, but the volume advantage did not translate into a better result. Washington Capitals scored on 25.0% of its shots, compared with 3.0% for Nashville Predators. 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.
Washington Capitals converted 1 of 2 power plays (50.0%); Nashville Predators converted 1 of 3 power plays (33.3%). Power-play goal totals were level, so the difference in the final score came from other scoring situations.
