Here's a few meaningless stats from stats.hockeyanalysis.com

League-wide last year (1,230 games)

There were 105,739 shot attempts 5-on-5, but 25.6% of those were blocked.
78,665 were not blocked, but 28.15% of unblocked shots missed the net (20.95% of shot attempts)
56,517 of those unblocked shots were shots on goal, but 92.28% of shots on goal were saved the goalkeeper (49.32% of shot attempts)

4,362 of those shots on goal were goals. 7.72% shooting percentage 5-on-5. (4.13% of shot attempts were goals)

Flames last year:
Blocked 30.64% of shot attempts against (way above average).
29.26% of the unblocked shots missed the net (slightly above average)
but goalies only saved 90.89% of the shots on goal (way below average). Poor goaltending cost us almost 30 goals against 5-on-5 last year. (our goal differential was -32 last year overall)

Offensively our shots were blocked/missed/saved at approximately the same rate as league average.

CF% was 46.3% 5-on-5 because presumably not a strong possession team
FF% was 47.7% 5-on-5 because we blocked so many shots
GF% was 44.2% 5-on-5 because of poor save %

Flames this year (19 games)

Defensively, 32.12% of shot attempts are blocked (way high again)
29.72% of unblocked shots miss the net (slightly above average)
but 92.62% of shots are being saved (sustainable) and we are on pace to reduce our 5-on-5 goals against by 30 goals this year. We are on pace to give up an additional 41 shots this year 5-on-5.

Offensively our shots are blocked/miss at about league average, but goalies are only stopping 89.84% of our shots on goal 5-on-5 (unsustainable). We are on pace to score 32 more goals this year 5-on-5. We are on pace to take 73 less shots this year 5-on-5.

CF% 44.0% 5-on-5 because presumably not a strong possession team
FF% 45.9% 5-on-5 because we blocked so many shots
GF% 54.2% 5-on-5 because better goaltending and unsustainable shooting percentage
