Happened aroind Christmas as I’ve mentioned with SJ and ANA too.
It’s really just the Rangers game tonight, a few weeks back, and then Dallas earlier this week, where the Flames have had this many chances not go in. Most of the time it’s the coach not pushing the players to finish teams once and for all.

This has been a thing almost all season long actually. Okay, maybe to not quite this degree but to varying degrees of this it has been a way too common occurrence.
Outshoot and supposedly out CORSI the opponent, more often than not lose where it really counts. No good.
