The Flames (5 on 5) are ranked 5th in the league in "scoring chances" (any shot of any kind from the home plate area), and they're ranked 4th in terms of high danger chances (home plate on a tip, rebound or pass).

Their high danger shooting percentage however is 23rd.

I don't think they have the horses.
Half the time it seems like they can't hit the dang net. I'm not a stats guy, but I do wonder how many times they completely miss the net per game.
