Every shot attempt, computed from the league's play-by-play coordinates. Hurricanes attack left, Golden Knights 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: CAR 28, VGK 21.

Attempt share by period
Golden Knights took 50.0% of the shot attempts, and 46.1% of the 78 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 Hurricanes hold the remainder. All situations unless the 5-on-5 figure is named. All 32 teams
