Shot chart

Every shot attempt, computed from the league's play-by-play coordinates. Canadiens attack left, Hurricanes 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; 1 empty-net goal is drawn as a diamond. Boxscore shots on goal: MTL 24, CAR 30.

MTL in red CAR in blue goal empty-net goal shot on goal missed blocked Canadiens 24 shots on goal (1 goal, 11 missed, 13 blocked) attacking left; Hurricanes 30 shots on goal (6 goals, 12 missed, 5 blocked) attacking right.

Attempt share by period

Canadiens took 50.5% of the shot attempts, and 50.8% of the 65 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 Hurricanes and FF% their share of the ones that were not blocked, so the Canadiens hold the remainder. All situations unless the 5-on-5 figure is named. All 32 teams
