Shot chart

Every shot attempt, computed from the league's play-by-play coordinates. Sharks attack left, Bruins attack right, all periods folded onto one rink. 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: SJS 28, BOS 41.

SJS in red BOS in blue goal shot on goal missed blocked Sharks 28 shots on goal (4 goals, 10 missed, 8 blocked) attacking left; Bruins 41 shots on goal (2 goals, 17 missed, 21 blocked) attacking right.

Attempt share by period

Bruins took 63.2% of the shot attempts, and 63.0% of the 100 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 Bruins and FF% their share of the ones that were not blocked, so the Sharks hold the remainder. All situations unless the 5-on-5 figure is named. All 32 teams
