That's an objective analysis.
Do you really think it's possible to get into this tight home plate often and find a way to have a poor quality chance more often than not?

How come the Flames quite consistently out shoot their opponents, from closer in now according to stats, and yet the Flames consistently make the opposing goaltender look good, no matter if that goal tender is the backup or what one would consider a weaker goal tender?
That can't all be bad luck. Quality of shots, outside of from a few Flames, is also poor.
