Shot chart

Every shot attempt, computed from the league's play-by-play coordinates. Stars attack left, Kings attack right, all periods folded onto one rink. Attempts are plotted where the league recorded them, so the 1 mark in a team's own end is an attempt logged from there: empty-net shots, long dumps on the net; 1 empty-net goal is drawn as a diamond. Boxscore shots on goal: DAL 18, LAK 25.

DAL in red LAK in blue goal empty-net goal shot on goal missed blocked Stars 18 shots on goal (3 goals, 11 missed, 15 blocked) attacking left; Kings 25 shots on goal (1 goal, 9 missed, 14 blocked) attacking right.

Attempt share by period

Kings took 52.2% of the shot attempts, and 52.4% of the 84 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 Kings and FF% their share of the ones that were not blocked, so the Stars hold the remainder. All situations unless the 5-on-5 figure is named. All 32 teams
