I don't think it says much about the only thing that I could possibly take from it is that the Flames are not taking the body enough and making borderline plays that will get called sometimes making it easier for other teams to make plays. Perhaps the team should have taken some penalties in that Sharks game to prevent them from dominating? But that seems like a stretch.

Likely a combination of a very soft team, with few games played and something that will even out over time.
