"80% of flames games this season have been wins or one-goal losses, last 17 games 15 have been wins or one goal loss with the other two 2-0 losses with one one being an empty net goal, Flames record 25 W (14 reg, 7 OT, 4 shootout) 40 L (20 by one goal(13 reg, 4 OT , 3 shootout, six by two goals with an empty net)"

summary from mulitiple twitter postings but didn't want to cut and paste but wanted to give him credit for the stats.
Interesting, but it would be good to know where other non-playoff teams compare.

On the surface though, that screams lack of talent as opposed to coaching. It's not like this team gets schooled every night. We definitely lack established top line talent though.
