Shot chart

Every shot attempt, computed from the league's play-by-play coordinates. Canadiens attack left, Devils 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: MTL 19, NJD 28.

MTL in red NJD in blue goal shot on goal missed blocked Canadiens 19 shots on goal (3 goals, 9 missed, 14 blocked) attacking left; Devils 28 shots on goal (4 goals, 11 missed, 21 blocked) attacking right.

Attempt share by period

Devils took 58.8% of the shot attempts, and 51.4% of the 74 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 Canadiens hold the remainder. All situations unless the 5-on-5 figure is named. All 32 teams
