Flames Penalties Before Wideman Incident
Minor 126 (/ 48 games) = 2.625 / game
Major 13 = 0.271 / game
Misc 3 = 0.063 / game
Flames Penalties After Wideman Incident
Minor 47 (/ 11 games) = 4.27 / game
Major 1 = 0.091 / game
Misc 1 = 0.091 / game
So, minor penalty calls increased by 62% since Wideman.
Figured I'd look to see if the penalties were going up for both teams in Flames' games...
Flames Powerplay Opportunities Before Wideman
77 / 24 GP Home = 3.208 / GP
78 / 24 GP Road = 3.25 / GP
Flames Powerplay Opportunities Before Wideman
20 / 6 GP Home = 3.33 / GP
19 / 5 GP Road = 3.8 / GP
So, only a slight increase (of 3% when the Flames are at home at 16% on the Road)
