Hit or Miss: Where do the Avs shots go?

A little extra time over the weekend got me thinking about shooting and how the Avs seemed to be pretty successful on Friday when they actually did some. It also got me thinking about where their shot attempts go. Not in the net very much obviously, in the shinpads, up in the stands, 5 feet over the goalie’s head, who knows?

I decided to take individual 5v5 shot attempts and break them down into the four tracked outcomes: block, miss, save and goal. I took out everyone with fewer than 25 SA so no Cody, Greer, Big Sam, etc.
