Shot chart

Every shot attempt, computed from the league's play-by-play coordinates. Blackhawks attack left, Penguins attack right, all periods folded onto one rink. Attempts are plotted where the league recorded them, so a mark in a team's own end would be an attempt logged from there (none in this game). Boxscore shots on goal: CHI 20, PIT 45.

CHI in red PIT in blue goal shot on goal missed blocked Blackhawks 20 shots on goal (2 goals, 11 missed, 14 blocked) attacking left; Penguins 45 shots on goal (6 goals, 21 missed, 18 blocked) attacking right.

Attempt share by period

Penguins took 65.1% of the shot attempts, and 69.1% of the 110 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 Blackhawks hold the remainder. All situations unless the 5-on-5 figure is named. All 32 teams
