I agree, completely.
The stats to me all point to the Flames, under Gulutzan, as playing such a slow game that the opposition was always in proper position. Their high danger chances weren’t dangerous? Because they couldn’t catch a goaltender out of position. Their shots kept going wide of the net? Because the opposing skaters had ample time to get in position and block the lanes to the net.
They were slow. The eye test more than confirmed it, and depending on how you interpret the stats, they sure seem to confirm it as well.
