Shot chart

Every shot attempt, computed from the league's play-by-play coordinates. Golden Knights attack left, Ducks attack right, all periods folded onto one rink. Attempts are plotted where the league recorded them, so a mark in a team's own end would be an attempt logged from there (none in this game). Boxscore shots on goal: VGK 21, ANA 23.

VGK in red ANA in blue goal shot on goal missed blocked Golden Knights 21 shots on goal (3 goals, 7 missed, 14 blocked) attacking left; Ducks 23 shots on goal (4 goals, 19 missed, 15 blocked) attacking right.

Attempt share by period

Ducks took 57.6% of the shot attempts, and 60.6% of the 71 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 Ducks and FF% their share of the ones that were not blocked, so the Golden Knights hold the remainder. All situations unless the 5-on-5 figure is named. All 32 teams
