Shot chart

Every shot attempt, computed from the league's play-by-play coordinates. Canucks attack left, Lightning 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. Boxscore shots on goal: VAN 14, TBL 35.

VAN in red TBL in blue goal shot on goal missed blocked Canucks 14 shots on goal (2 goals, 13 missed, 24 blocked) attacking left; Lightning 35 shots on goal (4 goals, 21 missed, 17 blocked) attacking right.

Attempt share by period

Lightning took 58.9% of the shot attempts, and 61.2% of the 103 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 Lightning and FF% their share of the ones that were not blocked, so the Canucks hold the remainder. All situations unless the 5-on-5 figure is named. All 32 teams
