Last year the team was about puck possession. This year it seems like all they are doing is entering the zone and firing the puck on net and hoping for the best.

I 100% agree, just making the point that it still takes a lot of effort for the Flames to get the shot volume and control the play the way they do. I just don't think it's an effort problem.
I also don't feel like it's a big change from last season other than the fact that the Gaudreau-Lindholm-Tkachuk line was so deadly on quick break outs and rushes that it completely changed the narrative.
