Agree.
Since February 1 the Flames are 11th in the league in even strength goals. 2.5 EVGPG (even strength goals per game)
EVGPG since Feb1:
Vegas: 2.6
SJS: 2.6
The Jets for example I think are 2.3 EVGPG but are 3rd in Powerplay goals.
Since February 1st, the best teams in the west are all basically within a goal or two of each other. Things have narrowed SIGNIFICANTLY for the Flames.
All the teams around the Flames got better at the deadline, while the Flames stayed the same. Instead of being the class of the west, the Flames are now 'in the mix'.
