Flames have a shooting percentage of 8.4% on the year. Seems highly unlikely that this 4% shooting percentage (which would be 2.6% worse than every team in the league) is going to be an ongoing issue.
For sure. But this has as more to do with what the Flames are not doing offensively - playing up tempo, decisive hockey that generated a lot of looks from tough areas. Until they get back to that, or something close to it again, there's no reason to think things will just automatically shift back on their own.

Every team is going to have a couple dips throughout the year. So long as they don't let this slide into a 6,7, 8 game disaster, there's no reason to think they've suddenly lost their way entirely. From my view, almost everyone but Monahan and Guadreau have played pretty well the last 2 games, sooner than later you'd expect those guys to figure it out again.
