Shot chart

Every shot attempt, computed from the league's play-by-play coordinates. Golden Knights attack left, Blues 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. Boxscore shots on goal: VGK 29, STL 31.

VGK in red STL in blue goal shot on goal missed blocked Golden Knights 29 shots on goal (2 goals, 19 missed, 15 blocked) attacking left; Blues 31 shots on goal (6 goals, 8 missed, 13 blocked) attacking right.

Attempt share by period

Golden Knights took 54.8% of the shot attempts, and 56.9% of the 109 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 Blues and FF% their share of the ones that were not blocked, so the Golden Knights hold the remainder. All situations unless the 5-on-5 figure is named. All 32 teams
