Has anyone noticed that the only 5 goalies have more than one shutout this year and all their names are either Ilya or Jack/Jake/Jacob?

I'm digging these Flames this year. They're in ever single game and the ones they own, we get shut outs. Bing bang boom pada pow.

You know, just like all the experts predicted.
Goal differential tends to be a really simple yet uncanny way of measuring how good a team is. There are sometimes outliers, but the end of the season standings almost always reflect a similar ranking by goal differential, within a few goals.

Only 20% of the way through the season so far, but hopefully they can keep it up.

Yeah bread is going to cost 7 mil probably lol. He's amazing though. We have three of the best LHS wingers in the league on our team.

Mind you, a lot of space in those threads is also taken up by posts about how Tkachuk and Gaudreau are certain to leave for nothing.

The first two periods were like watching an Orca playing with a baby seal before ripping it to shreds

I didn't get to watch the game but I assume that the Buffalo defense got the memo, the "new normal" and just got out of the way of Mangi and Johnny?

Going to say it now but cue the "take away the shutouts and..." crowd in March.

That's the punishment Buffalo gets for taking the Vegas deal.

Flames team rankings so far:

Goals for per game = 11th (3.18)
Goals against per game = 2nd (2.00)

Shots per game = 4th (34.6)
Shots against per game = 7th (29.5)

Powerplay = 10th (23.5%)
Penalty kill = 4th (87.3%)


To be basically top ten in all these categories really bodes well IMO.

Long live Sutter hockey. My goodness what a difference.

Somebody else can do advanced stats if they want, but I'm sure the Flames are ranked very high in most of those too.
