DO you have the stats to back up that Andersson was on the ice when the Flames created some of the most high danger chances but didn't score.

It's math man, that's it.
And it's chasing the wrong stat to be obsessed by plus/minus.
If your expected goals against and your actual goals against are very similar and your expected plus minus is only -2, then the issue is not scoring at the rate you're generating.
The xGF60 is an objective (but imperfect) stat that counts types of scoring chances and build expected goals based on historical averages. His expected was quite high but his actual quite low.
