Reading the shot map

Updated Apr 30, 2026 · 3 min read

The shot map plots every shot event at the spot on the rink where you tracked it. Each dot is a single event, and the icon tells you what happened.

How it works

The rink is split between your team's end and the opponent's end, labelled with team abbreviations (your team on the bottom, the opponent on top). When you tap to log an event during live tracking, the app uses which end of the ice you tapped to figure out who the event belongs to. Goals tracked in the opponent's end are your team's goals, blocks tracked in your end are your team's defensive plays, and so on.

That logic carries through to the shot map. Solid-filled icons are your team's events. Outlined icons (same shape, same colour, just not filled in) are the opponent's events.

If multiple events happened in the same spot, the icons stack on top of each other. The most important event sits on top, with goals taking priority, then shots, then misses, then blocks.

What each icon means

  • Goal (blue bell) - the puck went in the net
  • Shot (orange thumbs up) - the puck hit the net but didn't score
  • Miss (orange thumbs down) - the puck went wide of the net
  • Block (orange shield) - a shot was blocked before reaching the net. In your team's end, that means your player blocked the opponent's shot (a defensive play). In the opponent's end, it means the opponent blocked your team's shot.

Where to find shot maps

Shot maps appear in three places:

  • Player profiles show every shot a specific player took across every game they played in.
  • Game detail pages show every shot from a single game, both teams.
  • Opponent detail pages show every shot across every game you've played against that opponent.

You're also looking at the shot map in real time during live game tracking, just without the historical layering.
