That’s it. Pretty simple

Exactly what I have been saying is happening happened again.
Not sure why you're laughing out loud.

Your opinion is that the Flames give up higher danger chances than other teams. It's not a fact no matter how many times you try to make it be.

The models do capture those events. They have an outside the home plate goal rate that applies to the Flames low danger high shot volume, they have a goal rate that applies to their within the home plate area without moving a goalie (scoring chance, not a high danger).
