Shot chart

Every shot attempt, computed from the league's play-by-play coordinates. Oilers attack left, Sharks 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: EDM 26, SJS 14.

EDM in red SJS in blue goal shot on goal missed blocked Oilers 26 shots on goal (5 goals, 15 missed, 17 blocked) attacking left; Sharks 14 shots on goal (2 goals, 14 missed, 13 blocked) attacking right.

Attempt share by period

Oilers took 58.6% of the shot attempts, and 57.3% of the 82 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 Sharks and FF% their share of the ones that were not blocked, so the Oilers hold the remainder. All situations unless the 5-on-5 figure is named. All 32 teams
