Shot chart

Every shot attempt, computed from the league's play-by-play coordinates. Capitals attack left, Sharks attack right, all periods folded onto one rink. Attempts are plotted where the league recorded them, so the 3 marks in a team's own end are attempts logged from there: empty-net shots, long dumps on the net. Boxscore shots on goal: WSH 31, SJS 24.

WSH in red SJS in blue goal shot on goal missed blocked Capitals 31 shots on goal (7 goals, 10 missed, 6 blocked) attacking left; Sharks 24 shots on goal (1 goal, 15 missed, 18 blocked) attacking right.

Attempt share by period

Sharks took 54.8% of the shot attempts, and 50.6% 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 Sharks and FF% their share of the ones that were not blocked, so the Capitals hold the remainder. All situations unless the 5-on-5 figure is named. All 32 teams
