NHL advanced stats are a joke. They take into account only shots without consideration of the shot quality or the skill of the person taking the shot to convert them into goals, it's totally ridiculous. The Flames have been OK lately but are exhibit A of why advanced stats are nonsense. You can out-Corsi the world if your finishing and goaltending suck you will still lose. I remember the Oilers being godawful a few years ago and leaning on Corsi, they'd outshoot the other team 28-22, give up 4 breakaways and have most of their own shots from the boards.
