Does a club that out-shoots its opponents also out-score them? Who creates chances and gives few back? Put any two team measures on the axes; better is always up and to the right.

SH% against SF%31 clubs
Utah Mammoth have the best combined rank: 1st in shot share (68.1%) and 7th in shooting % (18.8%). 7 of 31 clubs are better than the middle on both. The two barely move together (r = 0.10).
Right means a club out-shoots its opponents; up means its shots go in more often.

What the two axes are
Shot share. The club's share of all shots on goal in its games, all situations.
Shooting %. Goals per shot on goal. Over one season much of the gap between clubs is luck, not finishing skill.
A lower-is-better measure is drawn with its axis flipped, so the best clubs are always up and to the right. The dashed lines are the league median; r is how closely the two measures move together across the 32 clubs. Methodology →
