Shot chart
Every shot attempt, computed from the league's play-by-play coordinates. Devils attack left, Bruins attack right, all periods folded onto one rink. Attempts are plotted where the league recorded them, so the 5 marks in a team's own end are attempts logged from there: empty-net shots, long dumps on the net; 1 empty-net goal is drawn as a diamond. Boxscore shots on goal: NJD 30, BOS 22.

Devils took 57.3% of the shot attempts, and 58.4% of the 113 attempts taken at 5-on-5.
