Every shot attempt, computed from the league's play-by-play coordinates. Wild attack left, Ducks attack right, all periods folded onto one rink. Attempts are plotted where the league recorded them, so the 3 marks in a team's own end are attempts logged from there: empty-net shots, long dumps on the net. Boxscore shots on goal: MIN 34, ANA 28.

Attempt share by period

Wild took 55.6% of the shot attempts, and 52.9% of the 119 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 Ducks and FF% their share of the ones that were not blocked, so the Wild hold the remainder. All situations unless the 5-on-5 figure is named. All 32 teams
