Had a thought while watching the Flames turtle away the 3rd so I checked out some numbers
When leading, the Flames only have a 43% goals for percentage, indicating that they usually lose leads rather than extend them. The good teams in the league hover between 53% and 60% goals for while leading. 43% is good for 26th in the league.
The Flames need to work on closing out leads because they are too good of a team to be this bad. They're 5th league wide in goals for percentage while tied and 10th when trailing.
