Shot chart

Every shot attempt, computed from the league's play-by-play coordinates. Sabres attack left, Jets 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; 1 empty-net goal is drawn as a diamond. Boxscore shots on goal: BUF 35, WPG 23.

BUF in red WPG in blue goal empty-net goal shot on goal missed blocked Sabres 35 shots on goal (1 goal, 21 missed, 11 blocked) attacking left; Jets 23 shots on goal (4 goals, 12 missed, 7 blocked) attacking right.

Attempt share by period

Sabres took 61.5% of the shot attempts, and 59.5% of the 89 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 Jets and FF% their share of the ones that were not blocked, so the Sabres hold the remainder. All situations unless the 5-on-5 figure is named. All 32 teams
