Shot chart

Every shot attempt, computed from the league's play-by-play coordinates. Senators attack left, Canadiens attack right, all periods folded onto one rink. Attempts are plotted where the league recorded them, so the 3 marks in a team's own end are attempts logged from there: empty-net shots, long dumps on the net. Boxscore shots on goal: OTT 17, MTL 27.

OTT in red MTL in blue goal shot on goal missed blocked Senators 17 shots on goal (3 goals, 17 missed, 21 blocked) attacking left; Canadiens 27 shots on goal (4 goals, 12 missed, 12 blocked) attacking right.

Attempt share by period

Senators took 51.9% of the shot attempts, and 50.6% of the 87 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 Canadiens and FF% their share of the ones that were not blocked, so the Senators hold the remainder. All situations unless the 5-on-5 figure is named. All 32 teams
