The main point I was making is that it is my opinion that we have the worst bottom 6 in the league and I think I've outlined at least a few good points to argue that.
If you’re going to make the claim, you need to do the work. None of your points are very good because they don’t reflect how the bottom six is performing in comparison to the rest of the league.

If 4 is the number after you’ve done the in-depth work on the Flames bottom six, then you can only realistically compare it to other teams where you took their goal total and did the same work. If you don’t, then you can’t compare them, and if you can’t compare them, then any claim that they’re worse than any team (or even bad in general) is null. If you take the original number, 8, then (as has been shown) you can compare it to other teams where you’re doing the limited work. And as we’ve seen, 8 doesn’t appear to be concerning.
