The standings gives a team one goal for every shootout win (and one goal against for every shootout loss), regardless of how many goals were scored in each shootout.
The stats page only counts goals scored during game play (regulation and OT).
So far, the Flames have won three shootouts. That's why the standings show them with three more goals than they've actually scored.
