Shot chart

Every shot attempt, computed from the league's play-by-play coordinates. Penguins attack left, Senators 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. Boxscore shots on goal: PIT 25, OTT 26.

PIT in red OTT in blue goal shot on goal missed blocked Penguins 25 shots on goal (0 goals, 18 missed, 13 blocked) attacking left; Senators 26 shots on goal (4 goals, 12 missed, 13 blocked) attacking right.

Attempt share by period

Penguins took 52.3% of the shot attempts, and 52.1% of the 96 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 Senators and FF% their share of the ones that were not blocked, so the Penguins hold the remainder. All situations unless the 5-on-5 figure is named. All 32 teams
