Shot chart

Every shot attempt, computed from the league's play-by-play coordinates. Panthers attack left, Lightning attack right, all periods folded onto one rink. Attempts are plotted where the league recorded them, so the 2 marks in a team's own end are attempts logged from there: empty-net shots, long dumps on the net. Boxscore shots on goal: FLA 34, TBL 28.

FLA in red TBL in blue goal shot on goal missed blocked Panthers 34 shots on goal (1 goal, 13 missed, 20 blocked) attacking left; Lightning 28 shots on goal (6 goals, 8 missed, 6 blocked) attacking right.

Attempt share by period

Panthers took 61.5% of the shot attempts, and 63.1% 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 Lightning and FF% their share of the ones that were not blocked, so the Panthers hold the remainder. All situations unless the 5-on-5 figure is named. All 32 teams
