Shot chart

Every shot attempt, computed from the league's play-by-play coordinates. Flames attack left, Sabres 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: CGY 35, BUF 30.

CGY in red BUF in blue goal shot on goal missed blocked Flames 35 shots on goal (6 goals, 13 missed, 25 blocked) attacking left; Sabres 30 shots on goal (2 goals, 13 missed, 17 blocked) attacking right.

Attempt share by period

Flames took 54.9% of the shot attempts, and 53.9% of the 117 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 Sabres and FF% their share of the ones that were not blocked, so the Flames hold the remainder. All situations unless the 5-on-5 figure is named. All 32 teams
