Shot chart

Every shot attempt, computed from the league's play-by-play coordinates. Avalanche attack left, Wild 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: COL 41, MIN 39.

COL in red MIN in blue goal shot on goal missed blocked Avalanche 41 shots on goal (2 goals, 19 missed, 23 blocked) attacking left; Wild 39 shots on goal (2 goals, 15 missed, 15 blocked) attacking right.

Attempt share by period

Avalanche took 54.6% of the shot attempts, and 52.1% of the 140 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 Avalanche hold the remainder. All situations unless the 5-on-5 figure is named. All 32 teams
