Shot chart

Every shot attempt, computed from the league's play-by-play coordinates. Hurricanes attack left, Canucks attack right, all periods folded onto one rink. Attempts are plotted where the league recorded them, so the 1 mark in a team's own end is an attempt 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 44, VAN 17.

CAR in red VAN in blue goal empty-net goal shot on goal missed blocked Hurricanes 44 shots on goal (6 goals, 20 missed, 14 blocked) attacking left; Canucks 17 shots on goal (3 goals, 11 missed, 10 blocked) attacking right.

Attempt share by period

Hurricanes took 67.2% of the shot attempts, and 60.7% of the 84 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 Canucks 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
