The Flames as a team generally don't give up all that much five on five.
I agree that they seem to struggle scoring so it could still be an issue, but system wise they've taken a step forward this year.
It would be interesting though to look at the terrible periods and the not terrible periods, but then I guess every team would have disparity doing the same.
Markstrom has been great, but his expected save percentage remains pretty close to his actual save percentage.
