The record says that the Flames been a mediocre ( 8 wins in 16 games) team and the fancy stats pretty uniformly say they have been better than average team.
Do you feel that the Fancy stats are indicative of:
1) the Flames being a better team than their win total would indicate and have just been unlucky
2) The Flames style of play focuses on getting good possession stats (sort of like Ottawa)
3) That fancy stats are a fun thing to track but not developed to the level where they are indicative of either past or future results.
Oilers are in the bottom quarter of the league in Fancy stats but watching the games I would not bet heavily on the Flames dominating them in the up-coming 2 games or the Below average Leafs in the following 2 games
