High-Danger shots against per 60 minutes:
PIT: 7.98
EDM: 7.30
CGY: 6.57
OTT: 6.25
ANA: 6.16
NSH: 5.25
Also, Calgary was at 6.28 in front of Elliott, but 6.98 in front of Johnson, which to me indicates they got better as the season went on (Johnson got the bulk of his starts early, Elliott got the bulk of his starts late).
And Nashville is ridiculous.

Yeah it's a hand in hand thing with goaltending and team defensive play. I think early in the season especially the Flames had a lot of defensive breakdowns and there was improvement in this area over the course of the season which coincided with better goaltending performances. Still when you break down the goaltending as a whole it wasn't good enough on average as this is an area the team still needs improvement.
