For example the Flames have had 239:01 minutes PP time and 29 goals
So Calgary's PP ratio would be 1 goal every 8:15 minutes
Oilers have had 243:16 PP time and 33 goals
They're ratio would be 1 goal every 7:25 minutes
and so on.

Exactly - I have always argued this.
Truly astounding that they do it the way they do.
