Canucks do this every season, as do a bunch of teams.
Canucks have scored 4+ goals in 4 of their last 7
And yes teams with playoff spots locked up do take bottom feeders lightly...are you new?

Vancouver has 40 goals for in last 12, NYI have 37 with out Barzal for the majority. Not seeing a any evidence.
Players slump all the time (Squeeze their stick) happens when players are in and out of playoff race, if being relaxed helps players perform better teams should be putting unlimited resources into that. You looking to discount stats based on your theory that the pressure is off doesn't fly with me. Just backs up your excuses for the Flames.
Regardless you've made me look like I'm defending the Canucks which I am not, just trying to coax you into more rational discussions about rivals.
