How the goals came
| Shots | Goals | Sh% | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Off the rush | 2 | 0 | 0.0% |

A rush is the first shot of a possession, taken inside 40 ft up the middle; the cycle is a shot after sustained pressure, or a first shot from distance or the wall; a scramble is a second attempt inside four seconds. League-wide they convert at about 17%, 8% and 23%. The feed records only shots, so these are read from the shape of the sequence, not from tracking.
