8 of those 22 have come in either 3 on 3 or shootout. Last I checked, they don't play those in playoffs.

Flames seem to be quite comfortable playing 5 on 5 one goal games, you know, the stuff that actually happens in the playoffs.

People put way too much stock in what happens in overtime/shootout. It's a tiebreaking scenario that really isn't real hockey. It obviously sucks to lose this many but it's not indicative of some bigger problem that people are determined to make a thing.
