Shot chart

Every shot attempt, computed from the league's play-by-play coordinates. Canucks attack left, Rangers 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; 1 empty-net goal is drawn as a diamond. Boxscore shots on goal: VAN 17, NYR 23.

VAN in red NYR in blue goal empty-net goal shot on goal missed blocked Canucks 17 shots on goal (3 goals, 11 missed, 6 blocked) attacking left; Rangers 23 shots on goal (0 goals, 19 missed, 17 blocked) attacking right.

Attempt share by period

Rangers took 63.4% of the shot attempts, and 58.2% of the 67 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 Rangers and FF% their share of the ones that were not blocked, so the Canucks hold the remainder. All situations unless the 5-on-5 figure is named. All 32 teams
