Blocked Shots

I just started a new season, and I think I’m seeing a discrepancy with blocked shots. I assume that the “SB” stat in the “Stats: Defense” view of the team’s roster page is the number of opponents’ shots that the player blocks (consistent with the typical NHL stat). I assume the same thing is true for the “BS” statistic in a game’s box score since the roster page accurately reflects the sum of the values across the game box scores.

But when you look at the “Shots” page of each game, it doesn’t align with the “Boxscore” page. As an example, my 1st pair LD had 2 blocked shots in one game per the box score. But when I look at the “Shots” page, they are listed as having blocked only 1 shot from the opponent. However, they are listed as having two of their own shots blocked by the opponent. I’ve checked a few other players across the 3 games I’ve played so far and I’m seeing the same thing. It seems like the names of the shooter and the blocker are reversed on the “Shots” page. But let me know if I’m misinterpreting something…
