Shot chart

Every shot attempt, computed from the league's play-by-play coordinates. Canadiens attack left, Maple Leafs attack right, all periods folded onto one rink. Attempts are plotted where the league recorded them, so the 4 marks in a team's own end are attempts logged from there: empty-net shots, long dumps on the net. Boxscore shots on goal: MTL 24, TOR 28.

MTL in red TOR in blue goal shot on goal missed blocked Canadiens 24 shots on goal (3 goals, 15 missed, 16 blocked) attacking left; Maple Leafs 28 shots on goal (2 goals, 10 missed, 12 blocked) attacking right.

Attempt share by period

Canadiens took 52.4% of the shot attempts, and 50.6% of the 79 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 Maple Leafs 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
