Shot chart
Every shot attempt, computed from the league's play-by-play coordinates. Flyers attack left, Sabres 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: PHI 26, BUF 28.

Attempt share by period
Sabres took 50.5% of the shot attempts, and 51.4% of the 74 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 Sabres and FF% their share of the ones that were not blocked, so the Flyers hold the remainder.
