Los Angeles Kings vs Columbus Blue Jackets Game Analysis — Saturday, January 25, 2025
By Hockey in 60
Columbus Blue Jackets won despite being outshot 33–24. Los Angeles Kings generated more shots on target, but the volume advantage did not translate into a better result. Columbus Blue Jackets scored on 12.5% of its shots, compared with 6.1% for Los Angeles Kings. 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.
Los Angeles Kings converted 0 of 1 power plays (0.0%); Columbus Blue Jackets converted 0 of 1 power plays (0.0%). Neither team added a power-play goal, so neither gained a scoring edge from converting its man advantages.
Los Angeles Kings won 57.7% 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.
