Shot chart

Every shot attempt, computed from the league's play-by-play coordinates. Capitals attack left, Rangers attack right, all periods folded onto one rink. Attempts are plotted where the league recorded them, so the 1 mark in a team's own end is an attempt logged from there: empty-net shots, long dumps on the net. Boxscore shots on goal: WSH 21, NYR 35.

WSH in red NYR in blue goal shot on goal missed blocked Capitals 21 shots on goal (1 goal, 13 missed, 17 blocked) attacking left; Rangers 35 shots on goal (0 goals, 18 missed, 18 blocked) attacking right.

Attempt share by period

Rangers took 58.2% of the shot attempts, and 56.6% of the 106 attempts taken at 5-on-5. An attempt is a goal, a shot on goal, a miss or a blocked shot; CF% is the share of them belonging to the Rangers and FF% their share of the ones that were not blocked, so the Capitals hold the remainder. All situations unless the 5-on-5 figure is named. All 32 teams
