Shot chart

Every shot attempt, computed from the league's play-by-play coordinates. Ducks attack left, Lightning attack right, all periods folded onto one rink. Attempts are plotted where the league recorded them, so the 4 marks in a team's own end are attempts logged from there: empty-net shots, long dumps on the net. Boxscore shots on goal: ANA 40, TBL 33.

ANA in red TBL in blue goal shot on goal missed blocked Ducks 40 shots on goal (3 goals, 9 missed, 15 blocked) attacking left; Lightning 33 shots on goal (4 goals, 22 missed, 18 blocked) attacking right.

Attempt share by period

Lightning took 53.3% of the shot attempts, and 47.5% of the 101 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 Lightning and FF% their share of the ones that were not blocked, so the Ducks hold the remainder. All situations unless the 5-on-5 figure is named. All 32 teams
