# Shot Quality Metrics **Key Metrics:** - **Expected Goals (xG)**: Probability a shot results in a goal based on distance, angle, assist type, and defensive pressure (0.0-1.0 scale) - **Shot location zones**: High-danger area (slot/crease), mid-danger, and low-danger (perimeter/bad angles) - **Shot type efficiency**: Goals per shot attempt for wrists, slaps, tips, and one-timers **Why It Matters:** Shot quality metrics separate luck from skill by revealing whether teams are generating/allowing dangerous scoring chances versus low-percentage attempts. This predictive power helps identify teams due for regression (winning on lucky shooting) versus sustainable success, making it essential for evaluating true team strength and informing strategic adjustments.
