High danger chances are great, but they are NOT the only dangerous chances.
Stats aren't everything.

Ultimately the stats are just a piece ... and from my eye, the Flames have been run over tonight by a team very content to play their style of game. For all the talk about good road periods, the Lightning have been playing perfect home periods. The Flames have yet to look dangerous beyond short spurts and TB is taking full advantage.
Awful game for CGY but not likely to be indicative of any future trends. Try to get it back in the third but at this rate it's a game you burn the tape on.
