I may not be getting at what you mean, but I see apples and oranges.
GF seems better. With half decent goaltending the flames are near a playoff team despite their defensive challenges because they can score. That doesn't remove their defensive issues but that's definitely improvement.
And the other factor I think is the amount of young players. Half the flames forwards are still on their entry level contracts. Geez tonight probably half the team. most of them will learn.
