This is an absurdly-biased attempt at "analysis". Here you go. This doesn't even improve this weird attempt to discredit everyone on the team but Wolf, but at least it provides a bit more perspective. Listed next to each game is Flames Deserve to Win, all stats from Moneypuck.com.

Oct 15 vs Chicago - 53.8%
Oct 22 vs Pittsburgh - 46.% (L)
Nov 5 vs Montreal - 45.5% (L)
Nov 11 vs LA - 56.2%
Nov 15 vs Nashville - 49.1% (L?)
Nov 19 vs NYI - 72.4%
Nov 21 vs NYR - 71.9%
Dec 28 vs SJ - 75.1%
Dec 31 vs Van - 56.4%
Jan 7 vs Anaheim - 64.9%
Jan 11 vs LA - 64.4%
Jan 18 vs Winnipeg - 11.9% (L)
Jan 23 vs Buffalo - 43.1% (L)
Feb 23 vs SJ - 63.2%
Mar 2 vs Carolina - Flames lost
Mar 8 vs Montreal - 37.2% (L)
Mar 12 vs Van - Flames lost

So from your list you have 2 games where Wolf clearly carried the team to a Win. 4 gained points, 2 gained points if it was one more goal scored and went to OT.

Then another 3-4 games where the other team outplayed the Flames yet Flames still won, happens all the time. Hard to attribute it specifically to Wolf. How many games did the Flames outplay an opponent and lose? Both of the last two games.

How many lost points offset the other "unearned" points? Likely a wash. Then apparently 2 games that Flames lost but never should have gone to OT I guess so that's 2 more points.

2-6 points gained is probably realistic. 17 is absurd.
