Pretty sure most fans would want their hockey team to have more scoring chances that the opposition, and if a coach is consistently under water and winning it's likely best to find out why isn't it?
Queue the drive by "deep dive" pot shots.

Ignore it? Who's ignoring it? You can't ignore it. Like vegans or crossfitters. You wont let us ignore it.
Frankly the Flames have struggled to get results other than "lots of shots" that means squat.
They didn't score more goals than other teams, proof is where we are today.
How about instead of expecting drive by deep dive joke perhaps recognize that you've opened yourself up to them because you're preaching too heavily that these things mean something. Results say they mean far less than people so very despartely want them to.
Gullys team in two years finished 18th (2016/17) and 27th (2017/18) in goals for under his corsi freindly possesion system.
anf 14th and 20th in goals against.
Shot quantity stats mean jack squat. And it's bizzare that people still want to talk about it.
