Shot chart

Every shot attempt, computed from the league's play-by-play coordinates. Avalanche attack left, Devils attack right, all periods folded onto one rink. Attempts are plotted where the league recorded them, so a mark in a team's own end would be an attempt logged from there (none in this game). Boxscore shots on goal: COL 24, NJD 24.

COL in red NJD in blue goal shot on goal missed blocked Avalanche 24 shots on goal (3 goals, 22 missed, 25 blocked) attacking left; Devils 24 shots on goal (4 goals, 17 missed, 19 blocked) attacking right.

Attempt share by period

Avalanche took 54.2% of the shot attempts, and 52.9% of the 121 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 Devils and FF% their share of the ones that were not blocked, so the Avalanche hold the remainder. All situations unless the 5-on-5 figure is named. All 32 teams
