BRUINS 2014 SHOTS AND SCORING BREAKDOWN

Bruins shooting statistics for 2014 season.

The Bruins are currently averaging 2.69 goals per game which puts them pretty much smack dab in the middle of all NHL teams this season.  They have come a long way from their first 4 games of the season when they only collected 4 goals. 

While my eyes tell me that the Bruins are taking better shots, I made a quick comparison between their first four games to their last four.  Earlier this season I posited my opinion that wrist shots lead to more goals, therefore these statistics do support my opinion of better shots being taken.



FIRST 4-

54% of shots were either slap or snap shots

21% were slap shots

4% of shots were goals



LAST 4-

37% were slap or snap

16% were slap shots

11% of shots were goals



While this is only my opinion, the awesome graphics and raw data come from Sporting Charts. If you like the graphics you should check out their Ice Tracking.
