Shot chart

Every shot attempt, computed from the league's play-by-play coordinates. Hurricanes attack left, Blue Jackets attack right, all periods folded onto one rink. Attempts are plotted where the league recorded them, so the 1 mark in a team's own end is an attempt logged from there: empty-net shots, long dumps on the net. Boxscore shots on goal: CAR 29, CBJ 30.

CAR in red CBJ in blue goal shot on goal missed blocked Hurricanes 29 shots on goal (1 goal, 10 missed, 24 blocked) attacking left; Blue Jackets 30 shots on goal (5 goals, 12 missed, 19 blocked) attacking right.

Attempt share by period

Hurricanes took 50.8% of the shot attempts, and 51.9% of the 104 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 Blue Jackets and FF% their share of the ones that were not blocked, so the Hurricanes hold the remainder. All situations unless the 5-on-5 figure is named. All 32 teams
