The Vancouver Canucks had no business being in a lot of games last season, being outshot a whopping 46 times. Despite this, they still managed to squeeze out points in 27 of these games going 21-19-6.
I know what you’re thinking, how did they manage to go above .500 while getting outshot so often and still end up below the bar? Well, the Canucks managed to go 13-17-5 in games where they outshot their opponent (one game is missing due to an equal shots totals which ended in a win).
The Vancouver Canucks didn’t let an extraordinary amount of shots on goal last year.
