Shot chart

Every shot attempt, computed from the league's play-by-play coordinates. Oilers attack left, Wild 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: EDM 30, MIN 37.

EDM in red MIN in blue goal empty-net goal shot on goal missed blocked Oilers 30 shots on goal (2 goals, 13 missed, 25 blocked) attacking left; Wild 37 shots on goal (5 goals, 9 missed, 6 blocked) attacking right.

Attempt share by period

Oilers took 56.7% of the shot attempts, and 51.6% of the 95 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 Wild and FF% their share of the ones that were not blocked, so the Oilers hold the remainder. All situations unless the 5-on-5 figure is named. All 32 teams
