Washington Capitals vs Calgary Flames Game Analysis — Tuesday, January 28, 2025
By Hockey in 60
Washington Capitals won despite being outshot 33–23. Calgary Flames generated more shots on target, but the volume advantage did not translate into a better result. Washington Capitals scored on 13.0% of its shots, compared with 3.0% for Calgary Flames. Those are team scoring rates, not goalie save percentages; empty-net goals can affect them.

Washington Capitals converted 1 of 4 power plays (25.0%); Calgary Flames converted 1 of 5 power plays (20.0%). Power-play goal totals were level, so the difference in the final score came from other scoring situations.
