Truth is, the Flames played hard tonight, came out with energy, and controlled more of the play, from shots and blocked shots.
What needs to be answered is from that;
- why so few quality chances from all that possession
- why the ratio of quality chances for the Oil on their limited possession.
- And frankly, Johnson was also junk.

All that advanced stats stuff is overrated IMO. The Oilers had way better scoring chances all game and buried them, the Flames didn't. Most of the Flames offense came from the perimeter and weren't really a threat to score at all.
