Shot chart

Every shot attempt, computed from the league's play-by-play coordinates. Flyers attack left, Penguins 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: PHI 34, PIT 30.

PHI in red PIT in blue goal shot on goal missed blocked Flyers 34 shots on goal (3 goals, 22 missed, 16 blocked) attacking left; Penguins 30 shots on goal (6 goals, 15 missed, 11 blocked) attacking right.

Attempt share by period

Flyers took 56.3% of the shot attempts, and 56.7% of the 97 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 Penguins and FF% their share of the ones that were not blocked, so the Flyers hold the remainder. All situations unless the 5-on-5 figure is named. All 32 teams
