BUT if you take away the pp pts... which you might be able to admit is not close to being the same or related to the overall game plan you end up with the Flames holding on to the Defense scoring belt 125 pts to 116.
The other thing you have with nashville, ingrained by Trotz, is the defense first of the forward group as a whole.... no chance for a ppg forward on that team.
You also help prove a point about the Flames being in more trouble than can be fixed with a NHL caliber goal tender.
... among goalies with more than 20 games the nashville's Rinnie has a .910 Sv% good for 39th spot just ahead of Ramo.

or both teams try to play to their strengths which is having a high scoring defence with a lack of scoring forwards.
As for goaltending, this season has been much worse than last season, which says to me, our goalie situation can be improved.
