Shot chart

Every shot attempt, computed from the league's play-by-play coordinates. Senators attack left, Golden Knights attack right, all periods folded onto one rink. Attempts are plotted where the league recorded them, so the 2 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 22, VGK 35.

OTT in red VGK in blue goal shot on goal missed blocked Senators 22 shots on goal (3 goals, 18 missed, 15 blocked) attacking left; Golden Knights 35 shots on goal (3 goals, 16 missed, 12 blocked) attacking right.

Attempt share by period

Golden Knights took 53.4% of the shot attempts, and 50.5% of the 95 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 Golden Knights 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
