Absolutely negligible.
Meh, its just looking at the numbers.

Another way to look at them is Boston won 255 more faceoffs than the Flames last year, which is 3 more faceoffs per game. The Flames were short handed 2.3 times per game, so had the Flames been the best faceoff team they could've won an extra faceoff for every penalty kill and then some.
