Shot chart

Every shot attempt, computed from the league's play-by-play coordinates. Lightning attack left, Blue Jackets 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; 2 empty-net goals are drawn as diamonds. Boxscore shots on goal: TBL 30, CBJ 31.

TBL in red CBJ in blue goal empty-net goal shot on goal missed blocked Lightning 30 shots on goal (5 goals, 17 missed, 18 blocked) attacking left; Blue Jackets 31 shots on goal (8 goals, 11 missed, 9 blocked) attacking right.

Lightning took 56.0% of the shot attempts, and 53.1% of the 96 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 Blue Jackets and FF% their share of the ones that were not blocked, so the Lightning hold the remainder. All situations unless the 5-on-5 figure is named. All 32 teams
