Shot chart

Every shot attempt, computed from the league's play-by-play coordinates. Golden Knights attack left, Wild attack right, all periods folded onto one rink. Attempts are plotted where the league recorded them, so the 5 marks in a team's own end are attempts logged from there: empty-net shots, long dumps on the net. Boxscore shots on goal: VGK 25, MIN 28.

VGK in red MIN in blue goal shot on goal missed blocked Golden Knights 25 shots on goal (2 goals, 13 missed, 16 blocked) attacking left; Wild 28 shots on goal (3 goals, 6 missed, 13 blocked) attacking right.

Attempt share by period

Golden Knights took 53.5% of the shot attempts, and 55.8% of the 77 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 Wild and FF% their share of the ones that were not blocked, so the Golden Knights hold the remainder. All situations unless the 5-on-5 figure is named. All 32 teams
