The Flames are 52.85% xGF and 49.34% GF so yes they are underperforming relative to their chances.

However IMO this is indicative of a more obvious problem - the underuse of set plays and high slot feeds in our cycle and rush offense. This won't change with more luck... it will change with identifying how to use all this possession to better results.

I also don't think we execute enough one-by-one line changes while hemming teams in. That is a tenet of possession teams that simply isn't executed, ever
