Shot chart

Every shot attempt, computed from the league's play-by-play coordinates. Red Wings 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: DET 21, OTT 37.

DET in red OTT in blue goal shot on goal missed blocked Red Wings 21 shots on goal (5 goals, 10 missed, 14 blocked) attacking left; Senators 37 shots on goal (3 goals, 21 missed, 11 blocked) attacking right.

Attempt share by period

Senators took 60.5% of the shot attempts, and 60.3% of the 68 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 Red Wings hold the remainder. All situations unless the 5-on-5 figure is named. All 32 teams
