But yeah, a likely implication would be that player B gets in good positions more often, or creates more chances for himself, or both.
I look at it this way. I'd rather have a player like Ronaldo (Player B) who takes so many shots, and is very prone to putting a few balls in the seats behind the goal, but has bagged 25 goals this season. In contrast to Benjani (Player A) at 13 goals (half of Ronaldo's for the sake of the argument), who may have a better scoring percentage but considerably fewer goals.

Paul Robinson had a 100% goal conversion rate last season if I'm not mistaken.
