Shot chart

Every shot attempt, computed from the league's play-by-play coordinates. Flyers attack left, Capitals 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; 1 empty-net goal is drawn as a diamond. Boxscore shots on goal: PHI 24, WSH 29.

PHI in red WSH in blue goal empty-net goal shot on goal missed blocked Flyers 24 shots on goal (1 goal, 10 missed, 15 blocked) attacking left; Capitals 29 shots on goal (3 goals, 16 missed, 20 blocked) attacking right.

Attempt share by period

Capitals took 57.0% of the shot attempts, and 55.7% of the 106 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 Capitals 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
