Shot chart

Every shot attempt, computed from the league's play-by-play coordinates. Rangers attack left, Panthers attack right, all periods folded onto one rink. Attempts are plotted where the league recorded them, so the 4 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: NYR 20, FLA 37.

NYR in red FLA in blue goal empty-net goal shot on goal missed blocked Rangers 20 shots on goal (5 goals, 14 missed, 12 blocked) attacking left; Panthers 37 shots on goal (1 goal, 20 missed, 30 blocked) attacking right.

Attempt share by period

Panthers took 65.4% of the shot attempts, and 64.3% of the 98 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 Panthers and FF% their share of the ones that were not blocked, so the Rangers hold the remainder. All situations unless the 5-on-5 figure is named. All 32 teams
