If you out shoot and out chance the opposition, particularly with chances from the prime scoring area, you are more likely to be successful.
Does this guarantee more wins? Of course not. But you are playing 'the right way'.
And if you don't have success generating these type of numbers the Flames consistently have, it basically means 1 of 2 things.
1. You are snake bit. Unlucky. Results will even out over time.
2. You simply lack talent. You generate the chances but lack the skill to convert them.
I understand that's a simplistic response, and lots of factors can contribute to both 'luck' and 'skill'.

You are correct if we assume that all chances are equal. But as we know, if you are in traffic or your backhand etc, you are less likely to get your best shot off.
Eye test tells me that the flames dont get many point blank, rebound etc, really prime chances. Other teams somehow make it look easier.
