Congrats to the Oilers for getting the bounces, and taking advantage of them.
I've seen enough of the Flames running up the shot metrics and lose to not get impressed by this. The last Flames team that was poor analytically was Hartley.

The Flames are great at doing the things that make the models and metrics print high percentages. bad at converting those to wins. nothing new there. been the story since Gulutzan.
