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: CHI 32, MIN 23.

Attempt share by period

Blackhawks took 56.5% of the shot attempts, and 54.7% of the 75 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 Wild and FF% their share of the ones that were not blocked, so the Blackhawks hold the remainder. All situations unless the 5-on-5 figure is named. All 32 teams
