I feel like the flames have the same type of challenges (inability to score, losing the high danger chance numbers) against good and bad team's alike.

Maybe if you have a selective memory...Flames have won the high danger chances numbers in the vast majority of their games. Christ they out high dangered Montreal 19-6
Flames are 4-2-2 in their 8 games since the season long 6 game road trip...they have one Eastern trip left this entire season and have played the west really well despite not playing a bottom 3 team in their own division. A division with a team that has one regulation win in mid December.
There are no guarantees but it is extremely likely they have a better points percentage in their remaining games than they have had this far.
