Detroit Red Wings vs Tampa Bay Lightning Game Analysis — Saturday, January 18, 2025
By Hockey in 60
Tampa Bay Lightning won despite being outshot 39–22. Detroit Red Wings generated more shots on target, but the volume advantage did not translate into a better result. Tampa Bay Lightning scored on 22.7% of its shots, compared with 2.6% for Detroit Red Wings. 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.
Detroit Red Wings converted 1 of 6 power plays (16.7%); Tampa Bay Lightning converted 2 of 3 power plays (66.7%). 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.
