But no they didn't make a step forward at all, I think we can all agree on that.

All I've ever suggested is looking into why instead of assuming it's one thing only.
Why are you shaking your head exactly? You pointed out that the Flames were -5 before their collapse, and I said that still points to a very mediocre team when all is said and done.

No statistic occurs in a vacuum, but Goal Differential is still the best bellwether of a good or bad team. It was a giant red flag with the Flames all season long, even prior to the collapse.
