Generating quality is an issue for this team though and a big part of that is what the coach is asking them to do I think.

At 5v5 They rank:

Corsi For: 62.53/60 - 7th

Low Danger Corsi For: 38.79/60 - 5th
Medium Danger Corsi For: 14.98 /60 - 19th
High Danger Corsi For: 10.75 /60 - 20th

Shots For: 29.42 /60 - 4th

Low Danger Shots For: 14.47 /60 - 2nd
Medium Danger Shots For: 6.38/60 - 21st
High Danger Shots For: 6.84 /60- 22nd

xGF: 2.54/60 - 22nd

Was trying to figure out if there is a way to measure efficiency in translating total shot volume to actual chances and Flames don't perform well there at all.

Flames rank 29th in terms of High Danger Chance to Total Corsi ratio - 17.2% of their Corsi Attempts are High Danger. Only the Bruins, Oilers, and Kraken are lower this year.

They rank 31st in terms of xGF to Total Corsi ratio - 3.87% - with only the Kraken being lower.

So yeah this high volume of shots and just get traffic and bodies to the net strategy the coaches are asking for does not work for this team at all. And is leading to very inefficient offensive zone time.

And TBH I don't think you even need the stats to prove this one out - it's painfully obvious when you watch them play IMO. Lots of zone time, no real quality of chances. Cycle, back to the point, point shot. Maybe a rebound. Rinse. Repeat.

Edit: Going to put this in it's own thread I think actually.
