Shot chart

Every shot attempt, computed from the league's play-by-play coordinates. Ducks attack left, Golden Knights 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; 1 empty-net goal is drawn as a diamond. Boxscore shots on goal: ANA 28, VGK 22.

ANA in red VGK in blue goal empty-net goal shot on goal missed blocked Ducks 28 shots on goal (3 goals, 13 missed, 22 blocked) attacking left; Golden Knights 22 shots on goal (1 goal, 10 missed, 16 blocked) attacking right.

Attempt share by period

Ducks took 56.8% of the shot attempts, and 55.3% of the 76 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 Golden Knights and FF% their share of the ones that were not blocked, so the Ducks hold the remainder. All situations unless the 5-on-5 figure is named. All 32 teams
