I don't know the specific stats for game performance at home vs on the road but from watching the games this team is certainly weaker at home. I would probably want to look into the pre game prep for home games to see what the problems are. I'm assuming the coaching staff just isn't getting the players into the right head space when at home. Luckily for the Flames they only have 13 more home games this season so if the road trends continue they still have a fighting chances of getting a playoff spot.
