Shot chart

Every shot attempt, computed from the league's play-by-play coordinates. Golden Knights attack left, Kraken 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: VGK 35, SEA 33.

VGK in red SEA in blue goal shot on goal missed blocked Golden Knights 35 shots on goal (3 goals, 15 missed, 15 blocked) attacking left; Kraken 33 shots on goal (3 goals, 20 missed, 17 blocked) attacking right.
