Now some people don't buy that they are playing that well and that these stats aren't measuring danger very well. That's another argument entirely.

For sure ... the same argument.
Are advanced metrics perfect? No. But they're better than nothing, and at least we don't have 30 pages of eye test arguments.
Bottom line the Flames have given up the second least shot attempts from the home plate area. That can never be a bad thing.
But in the "it's early" category ... Buffalo is 1st.
