Flip side of the Flames equation - if the advanced stats for the Kings are good, then why are they struggling in the standings? What factors are the current models missing? At this sample size, luck/randomness should not be much of a factor.
The advanced stats as they stand are mildly interesting, but they are only capturing a small portion of the game "events". Once better player and puck tracking systems are brought into play, the statistics should also become more useful.
