I think the problem is that not all chances are equal. We can't judge a team by that. Monahan missed an almost sure goal in OT last game. That's a chance that gets on a replay feed and more often than not they go in. But how are other chances defined? A shot from the same spot by Monahan will have a different outcome than one from Brouwer. At least most of the time.
So yes the Flames are buzzing around and shooting, but again, that can have different results.

So, are you suggesting that the discrepancy between Flames' scoring chance generation and actual goals scored is an artificial product of low-percentage shooters amassing an inordinate number of high quality chances?
I think if you are going to forward an assertion like this, then the impetus is upon you to show some evidence to support it.
